Re[2]: Australian TYPE 3 badges are here!


Ken and others,
Go to 'http://www-personal.umich.edu/~gregm/T3/scrapbook/park/'
The top image is Keith's T3.  Look at the chrome strip that runs along the 
center of the body.  The strip ends right before the headlamp.  Directly 
below (~1") the end of the strip you will see a small item not normally 
found on US Squarebacks.  This is a badge that simply says 'Type3'.  I 
would assume it's just like the badges found on the rear of the T3s that 
say 'Volkswagen' or 'Automatic'.  (Hey Keith, what does your license plate 
read?  "TYPE3??").

Aaron,
Have you seen the repro's yourself?  Or are you going on his word that they 
look good (and if so, do you trust him)?  I just want to make sure.  Also, 
I would send you the money but I can't seem to find your mailing address in 
your message :)

If these are good repro's then I would like one pair, please.

Aaron,

O.K., but what is an Australian Type 3 badge? Never seen one. Got a
picture?
