Hi all,

not mine, I don't know anything about it, but this squareback caught my attention. Still pretty cheap. If I had the money/space/time I'd be interested.

I don't have any experience with Type 3s, but it looks like it's got a lot of potential. And cheap too. Wonder what the reserve is. :yes:

Damn,missed it.I took it for a test drive,great car.KNEW i shoulda dropped in to ask if it was for sale 2 weeks a go!
Reserve was $1250.I got to $1450 then had trouble with my laptop and missed it
Makes me wanna sell the beetle and get a square now.Or sell some guitars and have two vw's!

Bad luck mate.

I'm keen on a square too - eventually - though I want to build my guitar collection too! Hard to have both.

There's this the Trading Post. Not much info but sounds like it needs some TLC. Cheap though http://www.tradingpost.com.au/Automotive/Used-Cars/Small-Medium-Family-Prestige-Cars/AdNumber=TP001351316?BackToResult=true

SPEWING i missed the square.I drove it and it was a great car for $1475 sale price
If ya left handed (probably not) i have 3 guitars for sale
A Cole clark 6 string acoustic,20 year old Fender strat and a 30 year old Guild 6 string acoustic

Not too many Type 3s for sale at the moment it seems. Let us know if the trading post square is any good if you check it out. I'm curious as to what $1000 of squareback is like.

I already have too many guitars (is that possible?) even thoughI'm thinking of getting a tele or an old Ibanez Les Paul in the future. I already have a strat and I'm not left handed. The Guild sounds good though.

Am ringing about the square tomorrow.Will letcha know.
Yeah mate,the Guild is nice.Originally a lefty,then someone converted it to right,then i got it back to lefty.
Get a Tele,theyre a lot nicer than Ibanez.
Get onto Andy at Galaxy Guitars on Brighton road (Ex Ibanez centre) Theyre a Fender dealer now.Good bloke and he's a mate of mine.
Dont tell him i sent ya though,he'll charge ya double! :lol:

Not to you I take it?

That Ibanez is a '70s model (around lawsuit era) from a mate (if he gets round to selling it).

Wannavee - February 4th, 2009 at 09:30 PM

Oh,forgot to put that bit in.Nah mate,wasnt me
Fair enough re the Ibanez.The newer stuff isnt much ive heard.I'm 95% acoustic player and only play my Martin
