"THIS VW TYPE 3 IS A CAR YOU DIDN'T KNOW YOU WANTED"

I guess the secret's out!

Petrolicious do some great vids and articles. I follow their FB feed and this link came up. This article of a late notch sounds like it may have been owner submitted but it's very well written nonetheless and the pics are awesome.

I have seen this car fly by me one morning going to work. It's super clean.
Wish I knew what tyres he's running. Ribbon strip white walls on a nice grippy looking radial.

He said he put port-a-walls on the car.
Maybe like these?

Too bad that cupholder wouldn't work on a LHD car. Crying or Very sad

Yeah for some reason I assumed the portawalls were ditched for proper ribbon strip white wall radials but you're probably right.

Interesting dash cluster. I like the smaller pod holding the gauge next to the column. Nicely done car.
