There were a few T3's in not so good conditon i.e. need paint, some rust, carb conversion, need interior etc. They were asking between $2500 and $3500, not $12,000 but still way too high for mid-west cars with all the mentioned problems. Although, maybe even moderately solid cars are worth more in the mid-west, not too me though ;) Jason Smith 71 Square FI AT Columbus, OH USA http://jasontsmith.tripod.com/vw.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
