>>All the paperwork left in the car states that it is 1977 model Type 3 Variant. Rear air cooled flat four. I believe it was purchased in Belgium. I will investigate the real age after I can move it.<< There was a thread on the list a few years back concerning a short private production run of Type 3s in 1977-78 using surplus NOS parts. I think it was 20-30 cars or something. As I recall they were described as consisting of parts from various years but were essentially pre-1970 models assembled later and originally sold/registered as 1977 or 1978 models. Anyone know anything more about this? Was it just some bizarre hoax, or could it have something to do with this car?
