yeah i went and checked it out because my friend is hell keen on a squarback or fasty (air cooled is contagious), it was closed though when we looked so no idea on the price, the thing is a beauty though! type 3 liscence plates, venetians, stone guards, nice and low and interior is amazing!

Had a quick look today, they want $20k for it, although it does appear to be factory black with salt and pepper interior and mostly original empi accessories, also fuel injected. Seems to be in nice nick... don't know if I'd pay $20k for it but it's only worth what someone will pay for it.

Hi

The black Type 3 turned up at our club meeting last night. The owner is trying to find history on the car, I think it must be an interstate car as I've never seen it at shows etc. in Sydney. I suggested to the owner to get on here and post some pictures and ask a few questions.

Bumpity Bump cause I've been waiting for this thread to move for way too long.

Caught an amazing bug in Lane Cove, Sydney. Looked to be turbo by BOV I could spy through the pop off decking. However could be wrong. White, flatt elephant feet lights at the read, wide as John Candy and Mean as Lucifer. Anyone on here? PLEASE be on here!

I was surprised to see a 54 Cabrio Beetle drive up Majors Bay Rd at Concord on Sunday. Dark brown in colour and looked pretty good for it's age. Happened to catch up with the owner at a cafe. Apparently he also has a 23 window Samba and 58 model 356.

I was speechless.

Nikos.

Nah mate not the notch. Still think it's associated with Volkomenn though.
