type 3 VIN

hiya,

just got the ol girl running
just wondering when exactly my notch was made...

#5082089 .. im sure its a '65

it's an "S" too.. cheers , timmy

maybe 64

In the book I have John Muirs, July 64 - 483592 August 64 - 315 000 001,
So I am guessing that it was made in July to August 1964.

I hope this helps

Marc

great, i think i just worked that out too from the samba, they have some VIN stuff for type 3's there, thanks !!!

What about some pics of the old "S" from up north. Where abouts are you?

hey tim what colour is yours,i have a 1500s 64 model,well i thought but was told on the type3 register that it was built 64 sold in 65,ruby red but yellow at the moment,,,,

the trim is red,i wont hijack tims post,but yes will be on the road for valla next year...cheers:beer

I don't think Tim will mind. Sometimes an extended thread will help on the original one, especially if the person is new to the particular model.

you guys are like forum terrorists, get off my plane.. just joking.

Yeah it's 64 , white .. not sure what white yet. Red trim, seats etc are great.. little rust.. plans are to get it happening as daily driver just stock. I'll check for photos.. i don't think ive taken any yet which is unlike me... I live in between byron and nimbin north NSW..

Cheers, Tim

Timbo most likely polar white clr902 in color and a 65 model. All australian S's were unique to our country due to the production plant and local content regulations set down by the government at the time.Easier to lower than the bug or bus..recomend this for your style of rat driving! cheers steve....will have production number of S's soon cheers
