Only For Imported Notch S Interested Dubbers !!
Thought we may as well put some more info here as a few of our Veedubber clan have requested "the differences" between the German import 1500S of
1964 to 1965 and the locally produced 1965 only Australian built one.
Adam (Empi) has listed some of them but here are some pics to make things a bit clearer.
Me being fanatical on them?? Not really but after seeing write-ups during th mid 60s in "Safer Motoring" mags it always seemed to be "the
pinnacle" of the Type 3 range. As Joel points out, The later ones handle much better than the early ones, even the magic 1969 model with the newer
rear end but with the better looking  shape had the smaller discs
up front. However, the interest is in saving a model rather than any handling issues, just as many have saved the 'orrible Ovals and splittie
Kombis
If you think you have an imported 1500 S or think you know where one is in a paddock somewhere quietly rusting away, maybe it's time either to save
it or at least get the trim parts to make a look-a-like one.
By the way, this isn't a look-a-like! It is a fair dinkum around March 1964 German import 1500s. When I bought it, it didn't have the pushbutton
switch but as I had it it went to good use. Production wise, it just missed out on it. For the same year time of production here in OZ, many dashes
had the transition plastic fill plate so the later switches could be fitted.

Never ever saw those switches before Dallas...
EXCELLENT...
I had a 1971 Variant with similar gauges but I preferred the later black gauges..
Loved the look of them... now have a black speedo in My beetle
I remember the 1500S coming out in Australia..
I was a fanatic back then... [too young to have a licence]
I loved the checkered upholstery which didn't like our sun..lol
Did they have premium petrol back then Dallas??
as I remember reading of the domed pistons...
and high octane fuel needed...
cheers

They had to run on the Super of the day but run a bit hotter here than Europe! The standard thing they seemed to do was change the domies for the
standars flat top ones. The exhaust valves were crap back then and gave problems with cracking of the valve head. One of the valves in this motor
reminded me of that as it looked exactly the same as the one I had in 1967 in the OZ N.
I've got a set of NOS domed pistons but no cylinders to go with it. Anyone know where I can get a set of NOS 83mm cylinders??

Looks like your March 64 notch missed out on red needles on the gauges compared to my Jan 64 1500N

Can't remember if it had them now on the originals which were in it. I changed the miles speedo for a km one. Had them cluttering the space up for
years and ended up giving some of the things to another Type 3 owner. The clock was there as well as the fuel gauge but I changed it all to 12 volt
during the restore work. I think the red needle ones were gone by mid 64.
Has your early 64 got the dash plastic fill for the later light and wiper switch? Someone on fleabay has a dash section for a pushbutton but why
would anyone hack a dash when it's so easy just to cut the slot.

I think I had one Lee but it was the black faced recessed one and it was in the old Birch green 69 which ended up somewhere in QLD. What about the
"nipple pink" colour needles that Holden used on the VE instruments.... NOOOOO!

Yes the dash has the black plastic cover strip where the push button controls would normal sit. Also have the 140 kmh speedo

Good to have the km speedo. Was a pain in the ass doing the mental conversion and the stick on things looked plain ugly. The S models had the 100
mph or 160kmh in them.
I did have the trip in the 69 Lee. I clipped the pic from whereisflicity's resto photos. It had all S interior except I had to use the Fastback
rear side armrests. All the other stuff except rear seat backrest came out of a 63 Square in Deloraine, Tas.

yeah the late aussie gauge are ftw imo.
I just bought a few days ago a 68 Porsche 912 tacho to replace my speedo. direct fit they are. Porsche 912 have 115mm tacho
Then later I will toss the clock for a vdo 220km or even 300km electronic speedo. I just am looking for the late 72-73 black fuel gauge now to
complete the set.
btw the 1500S was 8.5:1 comp ratio?!??

But only on the German import generally, even some of those came in with flat top 7.8:1 I believe. Maybe a couple of OZ ones had the 8.5:1 by special
request but generally was discouraged.

That's what I thought and knew at the time Lee. I think too many of our fellow Veedubbers got the specs from the imported one confused with the
local engine:
Phil Matthews wrote in his history of VW in Australia:
1965
"The locally made 1500S is introduced, a high compression twin-carb model that is only £40 more than the normal 1500 sedan."
Maybe VW at first thought they would use the high comp engine but the track record of the imported ones in 1964 having overheating problems in our
summer caused a change of direction. Maybe the Ampol Trial of 1964 decided the imported specs engine's fate even though the 1500S placed 2nd as
well as another two placing high on the list. The only difference from the N engine and the S engine here was the twin carbs. Can't remember
what dizzy was used here on the '65 but was possibly the vacuum advance only from our '64 N. The one in my S is the 1964 one year only
vacuum/mechanical advance. No dizzy caps available for them here so I had to modify one to fit.

It could have been there when I stripped it down but can't remember. Too long ago! That's what I thought regarding the flat pistons at the time.
Hard to tell what had happened from 1964 to 2000 but it certainly didn't look like it had been apart much. It still had the original heads on it
with the long rocker studs the same as the 40 pony power engines of the day complete with the almost compulsory burnt and cracked 30,000 mile exhaust
valve. What headaches they gave until we modded them with the short studs! I used one of the heads but the other had a dodgy exhaust valve
seat.

Interesting about the distributor Dallas...
I presume they are the same size as the 009 or SVDA Bosch dissies??
they aren't the large early type of dissy??
I have a new Bosch cap here off a Mitsubishi I have owned over the years.. looks the same size as the VW ones..??
but whether its the same ?? I also have points and rotor.. lol
they ARE different... but may actually fit My SVDA bosch dizzy????
I have enough problems so I won't be trying to fit them..lol
I can't ever remember reading of HIGH compression engines in Australian type 3 twin S...
in the advertising... just twin carburetors...
I didn't know that the M codes had a badge..??
was that for the High Compression engine???
cheers

This is the '64 only dizzy Lee. Scarce as hens teeth here in OZ but quite a few hanging around the US as it seems there were plenty of 1500S cars
got to there.

The M249 Tag was an "s" engine WITHOUT the domed pistons which is why it specified the low octane rating fuel recommendation.

I quite hate the early gauges, I love the late ones though
btw does anyone have any late black Australian gauges? I have been looking for like a year and still cant find any.
|
Have a set of the Aussie 73 only with trip speedo and tacho... I like the Early 1961-64 red needle gauges btw.
|
have a fuel gauge? I am actual after only a fuel gauge and if you have any late stuffed clocks would be great to. Plan to fit a VDO electronic 80mm
speedo into a clock. Already have a late Porsche 912 tacho on its way to replace the speedo's dash place.
Cheers.

As I said, pretty rare here in OZ! How many dizzy caps have you got hoarded Dyno! One too many??? I posted on here years ago to find one after exhausting all normal avenues and came up with a blank.
Anyone got a spare 4 x 83mm standard bore NOS cylinders doing nothing as well. C'mon Adam, you must know where there are some collecting dust!!..
I've got the NOS 8.5:1 bits to fill them up with.

A milling machine gets that shape notch in rather quick.
With my NOS stuff it's only NOS until it gets put on the car to use! We're only on this earth for a good time, not a long time so not much use
hoarding stuff for the offspring to throw in the dump.
Mind you Adam, I have two NOS up to 1963 Type 3 front left brake slaves. Do you have any use for them? If so I'll send them down with someone from
Melbourne if they are at Valla.
