VW Classic - Type 3s


Got back from the VW Classic yesterday, pretty good Type 3 turnout, didn't
really notice any early Squarebacks, though.  ;(

In particular, I remember a '65 1500 N Notch.  19K miles, wow, it was in
amazing condition, as you would expect.  Interesting, too, I'd never seen an
'N' model from that year.  I couldn't believe how much stuff was different,
you really got the shaft if you bought an 'N' instead of an 'S'. :)  Short
arm rests, single-tone door panels instead of 2-tone, basically no chrome
anywhere, etc., etc..  Of course, the 'N' model is probably worth big $ with
everyone having the 'S's...

Great turnout of Type 34s, took many photos.

Talked to David Orozco in the swap meet area, he had the cool stash of NOS
Type 3 stuff.  He let me take pictures of a set of NOS, in the box, with
instructions, set of bumper overriders.  Also got photos of a line up of T3
tachs - red needle, grey needle, and Type 3 Ghia.  Saw a few early T3 dashes
in the swap area as well as flat taillight lenses and NOS rock guards
everywhere.

Well, bye,
