"Put some work into this car and have a nice vehicle for summer outings and gatherings."

Description

This car is being auctioned on behalf of an estate. We don't know much about the car, but what we do know is that the man who owned it bought it in 2015. He liked this model since he had a 1600 as his first car, both as a "Matchbox" toy car and eventually as his first real car. It is in a started state of renovation and it has probably never been bad. There is some work to do to get it really nice again, but it is perfectly suited as a rolling project. The car's last inspection was in 2015.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Performs well in engine and drivetrain. Peppy and easy to start."

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is in a worn condition, mainly the front seats. The back seat is in better condition but has some stains. It appears that the door panels and headliner have been sprayed with black paint. The dashboard is in good condition. Other front seats are included loosely, see picture.

  • Exterior condition:

    Partially repainted with improvements to the paintwork. Some visible welding seams, primarily behind the rear wheels at the extension of the sill. There are also some rust spots here and there. Emblems and the handle for the tailgate are included loosely, as are extra rear lights and other items, see picture.

  • General condition:

    A car in a condition that suits well as a rolling restoration project, or it can be used as it is. However, with a bit of TLC, it could be really nice again. From experience, this VW should be fairly easy to get roadworthy for inspection.

Facts about the model

Originally called the 1500 and later the 1600, the Volkswagen Type 3 was available in three body types – Notchback, Fastback, and the station wagon version Squareback, also known as Variant. As usual, it featured a rear-mounted air-cooled engine, rear-wheel drive, and torsion bar suspension. The ponton body received its shape in 1959, and when production began in August 1961, it was first launched as the Notchback, followed by the Variant in February of the following year. The coupé version TL arrived in August 1965, coinciding with the debut of the 1600 engine. Volkswagen initially planned for the coupé to replace the Notchback, but the sedan was preferred in many parts of the world, and all models continued until production ceased in 1973. In 1968, the Type 3 became the first car from Germany to feature electronic fuel injection as standard. The model received a facelift in 1970 when the nose was extended by 115 millimeters, improving its cargo capabilities, and at the same time, new larger bumpers and rear lights were introduced. Although the Type 3 was significantly more modern in its lines compared to the Type 1, it never reached the same level of popularity. However, they became popular on rally tracks, being relatively peppy, durable, and stable on the road, which is why few cars remain today.
