No Reserve
Up for auction is my 1968 VW Type 3 Squareback/Variant 'N' series.
I have had this car for the last 12 odd years and it used to be my daily driver. I purchased it from its 2nd owner who was also in Canberra. Car was rust free apart from the front foot well section and battery tray of floor pan, so floor pan has been swapped with a mint zero rust IRS floorpan. All seats has been retrimmed not long before i bought the car and still look great.
Vehicle had a mini-resto about 6 years ago, it received: 2 new guards due to large amount of bog in the old ones (outer respray in factory colour), minor rust was repaired behind RH rear guard (now rust free), new seals (door, boot, bonnet, reflector housings, tail light housings, indicator housings, fuel filler, spare wheel tub), new lenses (clear front turn signals and US spec Hella tail lights), reconditioned shaved/smoothed dash pad, new interior cards, new 'salt'n'pepper' carpet kit, empi RHD T-bar shifter with reverse lock out, 72 model glove box tub with lever release for bonnet plus more i have probably forgotten. Most of these parts were sourced from ISP west in America or Classic and Vintage VeeDub. Vehicle has some bits like - TS reflector housings, chrome front turn signal bases, clock and over riders etc that are not fitted to N models from factory but sourced from other model Type 3's.
Car has a stock 1600 engine with factory twin solex carbs, pertronix points-less ignition in a bosch 009 distributor, after market extractors with stainless muffler tip exiting in the factory location, all in good working order. Currently rolling on virtually new yokohama 165R15 tyres and Monroe GT shocks. Has 3 venetian blinds fitted in the rear also.
Car goes annually to Sydney, Gosford and the south coast for car shows and has never missed a beat, cant see why it wouldn't be a great daily driver again.
Vehicle currently registered in ACT.
I am pretty attached to the car but i have put a deposit on my next VW project so this needs to find a new home.
AGAIN, you are bidding to buy, not to inspect, if you wish to look at the car please contact me. If you are unable to travel interstate then please contact me for more pictures or info if you wish. PAYMENT IN 7 DAYS UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS MADE WITH ME.
