We all know that 99% of drivers don’t use those anyway, but it’s a nice touch, none the less. Oh yeah, it also has a “new turn signal switch”. This is the 1600cc engine with 65 hp, or maybe more with the “newer Mexican heads, and Modernized Fuel Injection with Electronic Ignition.” It also has had the valves adjusted and has “Bolt on EMPI C channel Valve covers (I’ve got the stock covers and bails that will go with the car)” This looks like a great car for $3,000 or less, the mechanical work that’s been done to it has to be close to half that price. (kidding, of course) We all know the VW Type 3 engines are hidden under a panel in the rear compartment. This is where the Subaru WRX engine will go. A weekend of detailing and this car would really be spiffy! ( spiffy? Who says that?!) The trunk/boot looks great and the back area looks decent, too. All 3 models had a hatch in the rear luggage compartment that was removable to access the engine.
The rear compartment is much easier to access with either the trunk lid on Fastback and Notchback models or the rear hatch on the Squareback. And, I know that the back seats aren’t original wow! Of course, the dash is cracked, most of them are, but that’s fixable. Type 3 models, like the Beetle, has front and rear luggage compartments. Interesting seats, they’re “Procar by SCAT- grey cloth.” They sure look comfortable and perfect, but I would probably put the original seats back in, which come with the car. This original California car has had a ton of mechanical work done on it: all four new tie rod ends and alignment, all new tires, the “ heater boxes sandblasted inside and out, Exhaust resealed and new “Quietpack” muffler”, new “fuel hoses w/ FI rated clamps”, front brake pads, etc. The underside looks fantastic, at least from the one photo that they provided. If this is the worst thing on the body then this would be a nice project. I’m guessing that it won’t stay bone-stock for too long once someone gets their hands on it. I prefer older models of the Type 3, but this is a heck of a buy. Not quite as nice-looking on this side but still pretty solid no big dents, no major rust-out, nice factory wheels, straight bumper. I guess, if the entire car looked like this first photo it would have a higher price.Īnd, then there’s this photo. This 1970 Volkswagen Type 3 Squareback is on eBay and is located in the Mile-High City Denver, Colorado, with a price of $3,000 or make an offer. I must be missing something on this one, it seems like it should have a higher price than it does.
