Just saying to Skewy today when he picked up the pan for the 1500 notch how they seem to be flavour of the month lately... making a real comeback. Personally I can't go past an original early fastie. Mabye we should get our own section on the forum.... 3 is better than 1 any day!!!!
I've got a '68 chopped notch

In the worlds before Monkey primal chaos reigned. heaven sought order, but he pheonix can fly only when its feathers are grown. the 4 worlds formed again and yet again, as the endless aoens weild and passed. Time and the pure essence of heaven and the moisture of the earth all worked upon a certain rock old as creation. And it became mgically fertile. That first egg was named "Thought". Thathaga Buddha, the father Buddha, said with our thoughts we make the world. Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch and from it came a stone monkey! The nature of MONKEY WAS IREPRESSIBLE!!!!! !

Thats what I've got in mind...just scoping numbers.

And the splitty's have a club and there's the kombi club.

Seems only fitting to do something similar with the Type 3's

PS I have a beetle as well.

Another one still here at North Richmond. Not many 1500S models left! Anyone out there with a genuine German 1500S Variant?

killakornkobb, I'm 900km north of you. North Richmond west of Sydney. Haven't been down your way since 2001. Usually go that direction to knox. The last time I drove a Type 3 to Melbourne was around 1977 and will most likely stay that way! Great cars but I do enjoy the comfort and silence of later types. As a matter of fact, the Commodore is as cheap as the notch to run from here to Melbourne!

That was a standard scheme for the imported model. Sea Blue with pearl white top. I didn't follow exactly the white paint line at the windscreen and rear window. It should be curved from the roof down halfway on the rear pillar. I tended to like the squared line.

Well there certainly is some sweet rides amongst the Type3 fraternity here.
Due to the fact there seems to be a few of us is anybody else interested in lobying
the mods for a Type 3 forum for everything type 3, Similar to how they run it on the samba.
Would make searches a whole lot easier.
I'm not out to create divisions in the forum (I have a beetle to and my son has a kombi) just
making it easier to search info, pics and chat etc.

What do we all think ?
