Volkswagen Typ 3 Notchback 1500s Project Car — 1965

The car starts and drives, but the brakes need to be overhauled. Original paint has been sun-bleached and touched up. Used as a summer car until 2005, when it was taken off the road.

"A good project car that can be driven. Suitable for rolling restoration following brake service and a fresh inspection/MOT. The car would look great with fresh paint and carpets."

Description

The automobile has had three owners and has been across Östergötland and Jämtland. It was used until 2006, when it was retired.  The characteristic rust attacks on this model were repaired 15 years ago, and the car has been parked in a dry barn in Jämtland since since, awaiting painting. Now started and operational. Matt in the paint and red base paint improvements where it has been restored Some edges have surface rust, as shown in the photos. The car starts easily, is drivable, has gone 129,000 km, and is in its original unrenovated condition. Excellent car to restore or drive as is. However, the brakes must be overhauled and need a new Inspection/MOT   A service review can also be beneficial.
The car looks OK as is, with a great patina, but it's also an extraordinarily attractive candidate for rolling renovation.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The fuel system has been cleaned and repaired, started up and driven a few kilometers. Starts easily but needs to be serviced and inspected/MOT.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior appears to be normal. Nice seats, but somewhat worn upholstery on the driver's seat, as shown in the photo, which is usual for a car that has travelled 130,000 km. Mats have of dry rubber and fabric must be replaced. Except for the carpeting, the dashboard is great.

  • Exterior condition:

    Poor paint, but a completely good body with all details in place and in good condition. There are improvements and unfulfilled repairs available, as well as a little rust hole in an inner wings towards the bottom (in the stone chip) behind the right front wheel. The car appears to be in good condition up close, however it would benefit from being painted. The windshield is brand new.

  • General condition:

    The overall impression is typical of an unrenovated car. After the brakes have been serviced, the car can be utilised as is or repainted to look really nice.

Facts about the model

Volkswagen 1500 Typ 3 presenterades som ny bil i augusti 1961. Efter framgångarna med Typ 1, Bubblan, ville Volkswagen utöka modellprogrammet med en något större bil. Grundkonstruktionen med luftkyld boxermotor monterad längst bak behölls, men Typ 3 fick större utrymmen och var också mer bekväm att åka i.
Två år efter premiären 1961 kom S-modellen med dubbla förgasare. Bilarna blev snart populära i rally och sedermera folkrace tack vare snabb motor, bra tyngdpunkt och lättkörda – vilket betyder att det idag finns mycket få fina exemplar kvar.
