Join up with yahoo group t3uk by e-mailing from your normal address to t3uk-subscribe@yahoogroups.com There are quite a few other guys in the SE UK on that group. Generally Type 3s rust as quickly as most cars of the period, and faster than Beetles. Sills, inner wings, under rear seat, bumper mounts, spare wheel well, fresh-air boxes. Body panels are not that easy to get, though available with time. Repair panels similar, but fabrication skills often needed. Mechanical parts are reasonably easy to find. The Beetle is well served by many companies, but the Type 3 is scarcely supported at all professionally except where parts are common to Beetles or Buses. Dave.
