Might be a silly question but after diving into a messy google algorithm.
I still cannot figure it out.
Thank you and Happy Holidays, Everyone!!

Thanks for the answer, but opening that link is like inception. a link to a link to a link that doesn't give you a straight answer.

Sartorelli was the designer (or lead designer) of the Type 34. The Type 3 was an in-house VW effort I believe.

That's what I thought as well. Didn't they (VW) just board up the building after a fire and design the type 3 in it? Then do their road testing at night.

I think that's the story that's laid out in the book Small Wonder.
