Well, after working on VW's since the early '60's, I would have to say
that for all models, I prefer the '67. If the T-3 had just had IRS and
FI. It was the first year for 12V as standard equipment. In the USA, the
T-1 came with the 1500cc engine, and NO emissions stuff. This made the
engine very easy to service.
I am seriously considering converting my '66 T-3 to 12V and IRS. I am
switching the engine to dual port.
All I still need is the IRS axles. I have a set of automatic axles to
trade if anyone is interested.
