I'm not real sure on overseas markets, but its obviously not Australian.
I have no idea, but I'd guess 67 or earlier.

Its an awesome looking notch though!!! :cool::cool::cool:

I'd say '67 or '68. It looks like it has thin chrome up the sides, have to look at the dash to be sure.

experts!!!!
Ex meaning "has-been"
Spert meaning "Drip under preasure!"
I would have to say,
66, 67,
But thats a guess.

No clue, but I reckon it looks pretty kool. Rat look racer. :thumb


Kafer Lover - June 4th, 2003 at 11:27 PM

I reckon 66. When did they go to the wrap around indicators 67? Just a guess really.:P

I know very little about type 3's, but is that a swing axle rear?
Also what's with the exhaust? Almost looks type 4.

Whats the colour? beer!


kustomkool - June 5th, 2003 at 10:17 AM

Like Dave said probably a 67 or 68 have to see dash to be sure,But i love it.Same checkered stripe that Im having on my 64 evil square...love the rubber chook on the dash!


Unity-28 - June 5th, 2003 at 10:27 AM

67-68! Looks like thin chrome on the sides, also bigger chrome housing on rear reflector! Door handles look like later ones as well, but I could be going blind!

N!

is that a rubber chicken on the dash board ???


vw54 - June 5th, 2003 at 12:07 PM

Pretty sure its a 66 as thats when the larger tailights and wrap reflectors came out.

As my brother had these on his 66 and i had the earlier style on my 65

I think the colour is called RUST,, looks like the paints been taken off and the metal has surface rusted.


Andy - June 5th, 2003 at 12:17 PM

So what's the red car in the back ground?
Alfa spider?


Unity-28 - June 5th, 2003 at 12:34 PM

Thin chrome down the guts came out in 67 didnt it!?

N!


XXX-1.8T - June 5th, 2003 at 05:05 PM

The rear lights are all red making it a US Spec car but the euro plate on the front has destroyed my theory all together:P


twoguns - June 5th, 2003 at 05:14 PM

alright so its late 60's, i take it.:D

so would these be easy to come by?


empi - June 5th, 2003 at 07:38 PM

Looks like a 67


Menangler - June 5th, 2003 at 07:55 PM

There's one in Sunny corner for $300.00.
Its a '68 with thin chrome, tittie blinkers, 5 stud wheels etc.


BenettonVW - June 5th, 2003 at 09:31 PM
