1969 Volkswagen Type III NO RESERVE Description

1969 Type 3 Squareback starting @ $1969 and NO RESERVE.
Owned for most of the last decade.Long time Sacramento VW Builder, I put this car together as my daily driver about a decade (approx. 20k miles) ago.Way too much list but here are the highlights:
1641cc motor with counter weighted crank, cb cam, Weber 42 DCNF carbs and a Vintage Speed stainless steel exhaust.
Freeway flyer 4 speed transmission.
Pedro full Teak roof rack.
Porsche drilled 5 lug pattern W/CIP1 Cosmics.
Disc brakes up front.
VDO tach (ISP).
Trailer hitch.
Full set of 4 unobtanium OEM gravel guards.
Rear seat full recline hinges.
Exceptional, restored interior with lots of period accent items (coco mats, drink tray, etc).
Excellent body with original paint, and perfect patina.

Again, car was built to use every day. I also showed it at several VW events over the years (Bugorama, The Classic, Kelly Park, Ranch Run, etc). Everything works. TurnKey example. Runs, drives, shifts, steers, starts, stops excellent. Very solid, fun, driving experience. All systems are freshly serviced, and always maintained like a new Honda ( I own Honest Engine of Midtown).
It could still use some cosmetic cleaning and touch up, because it has largely just sat the last few years. I few small rust areas are present in the pan, mainly under battery tray (many pictures below).
Good Type 3 squarebacks are getting very hard to come by. You are encouraged to come see and drive this one. It really needs to be driven to fully appreciate. Super cool car, crowd pleaser, nothing but thumbs up, every time.Way too much to list, feel free to contact me with any questions.
