Liam\'s Early Type 3 Squareback

Liam_81 · 2007-01-21T06:49:00+00:00

After over 1.5 years of searching for an early squareback, i have finally got one. I am pretty sure it is a 1965. It has been converted to 12v and disc brakes. It needs a bit of TLC and attention to the usual rust spots in the floor pan. It isn't as rusty as others i looked at though. I spent saturday afternoon cleaning the previous owners junk from everywhere and giving the interior a good clean which left the seat trim in better nick than i thought. The engine is a twin carb from a later model which seemed to run fine, the clutch/gearbox will also need some attention. Overtime after it is registered and on the road I plan on slamming it, white walls, roof racks and some other bits and pieces. [ Edited on 11-9-2007 by Liam_81 ]

Update:

Being so low I dragged the old muffler off (it had holes in it anyway). So it now was a new one which has been tucked up a little. It has a nice cleaner note to it too.
