Those are definately Swedish Rear Gravel Guards... remnant of the sticker can be seen on one of them. I have a pair on the rear fenders of my blue car, but can't find a picture of them. Here are some pics to oogle over. Definately a nice find!! I'll post some new shots of my fronts in the "Type-3 Accessories" thread.

wow this is badass! I knew as soon as I saw them I had to scoop them up. For now, they are staying on my Type 3 bookcase until I am ready to put them on my square. If anything happens and I decide not to put them on the square, I promised Don first dibs. He seems to be heading in the Type 3 Accessory Hoarders Association...but I know he'll USE them. Very Happy

thanks for the info guys!

Thanks man I can promise those would go right on the car. I have a set of the larger ones in my case but still need to work out the seal and if you do use them I still have a set maybe or they will be for a 2nd Fastback. I hope to have my rims done by end of August then start on bumper rechroming and overrider towel bar install etc etc not too many accesories just a bit of an upgrade
My compadre and I went to 3 junkards today the good and bad of the type 3 hunt today was
Bad The bad is I found no type three cars or parts
Good That means no type 3's died this week in this area
