I was wondering if the Type 3 boys are playing with the Type 3 Selecta in order for them to visualize the ultimate Type 3 to drive on or restore with. Let us see your Type 3 selecta!

Here's my plan for Sharky 2 a.k.a. '66 Fasty:

Although I was still thinking of a stock look something like this:

I am not a Huge Type 3 guy, but this is what I would roll if I had the ability.

I've never liked the low suspension. I've never liked the way it looks, and it seems to be a real loss of functionality.

I guess I may have a bias, because here in AK, you wouldn't survive a minute on the roads like that...

I still can't see how to do this. There is only the early stock wheel without slots and I can't see any options for changing the wheel trims.

Are you using the selecta from T3D or is it somewhere else too?

I am very big fan of low...this is probably a tad lower then it will actually be...but it is actually at 2 splines now, but I will toy with the tire size and some outer splines to change it up and get it a tad lower.

And YES I drive a late model...Sad an it was the normal selecta that i found the stockies on.

i did a late car with the same color wheels and then copied them and pasted them onto the early body to get this.

I was thinking that one of these two looks would be cool for my 1968 Fastback.

Yeah, when I first made those I didn't realize that the '68 was being put into the early fastback category. So if I use the proper body style then I am not able to use the proper set of wheels. So I used Photoshop and came up with this instead ...
