Re: [T3] Rebuild or T4

You may be right Keith, but that's not what I've heard about Type 4s.
Generally owners claim they are the best cars they ever owned, though I've
never really got on with the looks.  You have to appreciate the Type 4 came
along when quality generally was falling; Type 3s of similar age rust just
as well.  We (the family) had a 64 1500S which had holes in its rockers
after 10 years (and not particularly neglected).

The 411/412 D-jetronic is identical in how it works, so there might be
something to learn.  I wouldn't object, but wouldn't lose sleep if the
general feeling was not to involve them.
