[size=4]Hi Guys, [/size]
[size=4]I'm still looking for a type 3 but have come to the realisation that the initial "wish" may not be all that viable.[/size]

[size=4]All the prerequisites at the moment are:[/size]

[size=4]pre 70's [/size]

[size=4]good original condition with no (or minimal rust)[/size]

[size=4]fastback prefered, then notch or square[/size]

[size=4]priced around $4000 - 6000[/size]

Yeah seen that somewhere........

Hey
Just letting you know, top pic is a '70 onwards model.. not a '67 to '69 model as you requested.. so i'm not sure if you'll find that colour on an earlier car!

Fastback's are better for extra luggage space in the back, and a little more legroom i think, but IMHO the Notchback is a much nicer shape

But then again, i'm biased!

Thats beautiful!
Are those rear wheel arches flared? 'Cause i might need to do that with my car.. any more pics of it?

done.

No idea on the rear arches sorry

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the fast replies.

jo_tas: I was wondering about that image, thanks for clarifying.

manx_xtc: No quite what we're looking for at this stage, but I'll keep it in mind. Cheers

will be for sale soon

my fasty was for sale some time back before I thought better of it, but alas a new kitchen and bathroom is being requested and I may be willing to sell for the right deal.

I am not looking to flog it off though and I aint giving it away.

Hi all, thanks for the replies.

empi: Nice machine, would prefer fasty but will think on it.

mscabrio: Have already been hiting up all of the internet sites, but thanks for the reminders.

Liam_81: Have already had a good look, but it isn't really what we've been looking for. Although a trip to canberra would be nice (we lived in canberra for 4 years upto 2003 whilst going to uni, great place!).

steve-89: May be interested, colour still may not fly with my lady though. I'll get back to you.

Paddo: Cheers for the link, the machine looks great. Once again don't think colour is right (although we do own a back car at moment!). Will think on it!

Hi pettles,
I have a notch like Jim Gow's sky blue notch(the third one of your pics) but mine's mint green with black roof. It has new tyres,white walls, engine, never hit clean, good original S model, original hounds tooth interior, clean carpets, quick shifter, lowered and accessories.


Firm 8K

Empi and Boostn, I am VERY interested in both your cars. However, the buggy I currently own needs to go first. Are either of you interested in a swap of some sort?

I'm prepared to talk about ALL reasonable offers. I know the gap in prices looks big but I think maybe we can come to some sort of arrangement.

http://forums.aussieveedubbers.com/viewtopic.php?tid=49442 

Please call me if you think you might like to own a very cool buggy.

BTW, I assume both cars are absolutely RUST FREE. right?

Hey Boostn, very nice machine. Could be interested but can't do 8K (not for a notch!). Very very nice though!

Hi Liam_81, what'd you meen dull..............canberras got tuggers, politicians, huge round abouts and smelly lakes. What more could you want!

Got a 71 Fastback in Sydney 4 $1500 if your interested its an Auto

cheers for the message vw54 . Still would prefer a pre 70's. Will keep in mind though!

Hi my nan just passed away and left a very clean type3 TLE fastback.
I think its a 1971 but look just like your top pic and I think it has an indicator at the top of the tail light.
I Am in VIC but she loved the car and wanted it to go to someone that would love it too.
You car call me b/h (03) 9720-3177
Matt Douglas.

P.S it is white.

Hi Matt, sorry to hear about your nan.
Car sounds nice (and you definatly shouldn't be sending it to the wreckers!). We've decided that we really want a pre 70's model, so we will not be interested (yet!). This may change in the comming weeks if we have not luck.
Cheers
Nick
