hey all just wanted to say that there was a nice dashboard in a white type 3 fastback at pinch an pay nothing. it was in very good shape but the vent in the middle was a different shape to the ones i have seen...so maybe a repro?...
i would have taken it myself...but i went all the way out there...and forgot my damn tools....😠

lol who thinks of these stickers... wat were you getting?
man i had intentions of tearing everything and anything known to man off those cars...
nuts, bolts, dash, sun visors....but i turned up with no tools....:cry
i ended up getting an old beetle mirror...because i need the threaded stem for my custom harley mirrors...i wish i did bring the tools though...the cars were quite bountiful...

Where is this pick and payless place??
"Tell him 'We've already got one'"
pick and payless is a huge wrecking yard and you go out into a feild and find the car you want and take wat you can get off it... and you pay at the gates.. its petty good but not much vw stuff...
Its up near Blacktown, depending on what you are after and what they have in the at week (or so) is whether you are successfull. I went there two weeks ago after a front beam for the bug, and they didn't have a ball joint one, this wekeend just gone I went looking for a gearbox (don't ask) and I found a ball joint front end. Got it and the discs attached. Just had to rip it off myself. Saw a few bugs various years, a few fastbacks and last time saw a couple of kombis, but all bay windows. If you go out there, ask a price for stuff before you bring it back to the front counter, take your own tools and its $2 to enter.
'Ah, whatever................'
Any idea on what the body shell was like on the Type 3 any rust or was it full of it.
the fast back wasnt in good con bogged up.... and the wagons were ok but i did really look at the wagons... me and my mate payed $2 for the two of us coz i followed him throu lol.... try it..
