Re: [T3] Are Kumho's the ONLY tires left?


<x-flowed>Hi Keith: I get copied on all the chatter about type III's, and I need a VW enthusiast's opinion.. There is a 69 squareback in museum condition in illinois i was considering buying. It is very expensive, they are asking $12900, but i was considering offering $9000 because of the exceptional condition. I spoke to a local VW shop (san diego county) and they said to contact enthuiasts such as yourself to get your opinion. It is a 1600 engine and it is automatic. The person I talked to said I would probably never find parts for an automatic. She said I could convert (in the future) to std transmission if I could ever find a pan that was in perfect condition to do a ___?? I can't remember what she called it. Could you please call me, or leave me your number, or type me a note? http://adcache.collectorcartraderonline.com/10/3/9/83855039.htm


This is the place that has it for sale. My name is Allison Yost 760-533-1207 days. 760-789-1969 eves or leave me your number and a good time to call or leave a note. Any help is appreciated.
Gratefully, Allison

Id go for the XZX, but at that price I can get 3 Kumho's! In fact, I got Z
rated high performance tires for my RX7 cheaper than that.


Bummer.

I had rag tires on my first Square.... what horrible tires, treadwear of
70, yes SEVENTY! Left black marks in the snow.... when I went to the radial
it was like adding power steering.
