Fair bit of progress today see pics further down the post - Paul
Guys I am considering selling my 1969 squareback. Most of you will know this is arguably the pick of the Type 3s. Old style body with disc frront end, IRS and twin port 1600.
It's in Brunswick and my number is 0419556632 or unionst@optusnet.com.au
I am currently putting it all back together and have decided to sell and focus on my early bay. I was originally building the Type 3 as a daily driver but my needs have changed. ie Work provides me with a fully serviced and fueled car. I have one shed and 4 cars.
Not sure what it's worth, thinking around $4500 but will listen to sensible offers and advice. No stupid offers or time wasting please. I'll post some pics when I can find them or get some more on the weekend. u2u me if you want more or better resolution.
Below is a description. If you interested please u2u me. It won't be registered but it will be ready for or close to RWC.
Register it, Lower it, Drive it
Body:
It's pretty straight and has no rust anymore - I have replaced or repaired any that there was. The front guards have been completely restored and any other small areas repaired. The pan is strong and had no rust to start with. Everything has been rust bulleted or killrusted or both. Has all the right chrome strips and badges
Paint:
I have colour matched the repairs - it is not concourse by any means but I was looking for an original feel - the rest of it is pretty tidy. Depends which way you want to go with it - rat or restored?
Interior
The interior is black clean and tidy and original. I have cleaned and repaired anything that is required. New seat runners, dash is cracked but OK. No speaker holes.
No carpet at this stage but that can be sorted if required or you could get Brad to sort you a flash german square weave job. Headlining is perfect.
Mechanicals
Twin port 1600 - 009 dizzy, brand new extractors and muffler, good compression (i have the readings somewhere). Brakes (front discs), wheel bearings, front end etc all good.
Manual
Wheels and Tyres
Gold Bathurst Globes with roadworthy tyres.
Other:
There is a number of new rubbers throughout - the rest are pretty good. New pedal rubbers and handbrake/heater rubber
Has all the mirrors, decent rubber mat in the back, ashtrays etc. I think I have found anything that was missing.
It is a German made one
Anything else just ask ?
Cheers Paul
