Re: [T3] Right Hand Steering Type3s


I don't know how to identify an Irish-assembled Type3 and I'm not sure
that I've ever seen one.  Maybe the paint colours were different?  
Maybe they had locally made generators or coils or tyres or glass?

I've seen Belgian assembled VW Type3s.  To me they looked identical to
German-made ones except that the logo on the window glass was [Be'VW']
instead of ['VW'Sekurit].
