it's real, he's got the pics to prove it.
It's not a factory convertible though.
Most people seem normal, till you get to know them.

There's real, and then there's REAL. Whilst this is real, it's not REAL. But as a project and a good looking job, it looks unreal.

Yeah, definatly not factory.. the only factory one is in the Wolfsburg museum in Germany AFAIK..
Although it is nicely done for a home job.. one of the few home built convertables i'd own..

I didn't think there were 5 chop top type 3s around..
it does look OK...
Not $20,000 worth though....  
I think He's called it a type 31 to try to get people ita an original VW cabriolet....
I'm presuming it Is really a type 31...
and Yes I noticed the fuel flap which must have come off a later model type 3...
I contacted the ebay seller but He didn't know anything as its His Uncle's car..
