HELP PLEASE :(

About as rare as any other 64 T3. The value would be in the condition.

Mon Jul 07, 2008 9:15 pm

I don't think 64 t3's are all that rare but i do think this color and a sunroof could make it rare.....YES?...NO?

Do you have one? Or, are you buying one?

Are you talking in general? Or, you have a picture of that Type 3? If your answer in the latter question is yes, please show us the pictures.

Thanks

otherwise, if it suites your fancy buy it.

It is rare, but, then again, it will really depend on it actual condition.

How early a 64 is it? Since I have never seen pictures of a 62-63 sunroof square, I believe the first ones produced are '64. There still may be a 62-63 Sunroof Square, I just haven't seen one. Early Squares are hard to find and even rarer if they are sporting Sunroofs. So if you found a Sunroof Square with a VIN that puts it's build in late '63, it would be considered fairly rare. What is the VIN of this car and put up some photos.

Upon doing research trying to find the earliest Squareback equipped with a Factory Sunroof, I found this car on the Jacin's Type-3 Registry. If it is an O.G. factory sunroof, it's the earliest known that I can find; VIN indicates an August '63 build. But, I have my doubts to it's authenticity for several reasons. Upon closer inspection of the car, it looks like it may have a later shell and/or pan. First off, the color is 'Delta Green', which is a stock color for cars built for the '66 model year. Also noted, are the 4-lug wheels, hi-back seats, and full chrome beak found on later model Type-3s. Does anyone know who this car belongs to as I would really like to know it's history and authenticity, especially if it is the oldest known Squareback with a factory sunroof. The reason this is brought up in this thread is because 65Nsqback has found an October '63 Sunroof Variant which would be the oldest known if my hunch is correct about the 4-lug car I'm inquiring about.
