NC IVWA BugBash Report


Hey T3ers,

I attended the IVWA Bug Bash in Farmington, NC today. Boy was it hot! But on
the plus side, there were a lot more people, cars, and vendors there today
than the last bash I attended. As for T3s, there were a total of 2 in the
show and 2 "needs restoration" fastbacks for sale in the parking lot. In
addition to my '66 squareback, a really sweet '67 baltic blue notch was
there. It was totally restored, mostly stock except for the interior and
rims. It drew lots of attention.  My find of the day was a T3 parcel tray in
good condition for $40. 

One of the more interesting things I saw today was a 1964 (?) T3 sales
brochure, approx. 20 pages long, large format, in French for the Canadian
market. Featured prominently was a beautiful picture of a tan CABRIOLET
NOTCH. What a beauty, if only it had ever come to be. I enjoyed looking at
the brochure, but the $65 price tag was a bit steep for me. I also saw a nice
EMPI steering wheel go for $300. Thanks also to the person who mentioned the
window scrapper replacement article in the Aug. 1993 Hot VWs. I bought a copy
of it today to see if it looked feasible for my car.
