Comments from the seller

1969 Volkswagen Type 3 Fastback Original Australian Classic Honest, Sorted & Ready to Drive This ’69 Fastback is not a restored show car, it’s an honest, well-kept Type 3 that has been improved where it matters while still retaining its originality and character. The interior has been professionally restored and presents beautifully, making the car comfortable and enjoyable to drive. Rust repairs around the window areas have been properly cut out and repaired correctly not hidden with filler. The paint and engine remain original, which is becoming increasingly rare in these cars. The paint carries genuine age and patina, giving the car authenticity rather than a “freshly covered-up” feel. Mechanically, it runs strong and reliably, with custom throttle rods fitted for improved durability and drivability. Fitted with: • EMPI wheels • Heritage short shifter • Original engine • Professionally trimmed interior • Proper rust repairs completed This is a car for someone who appreciates originality and wants a Type 3 they can actually get in and enjoy driving, rather than a trailer-only investment piece. These Fastbacks are getting harder to find in honest condition, especially cars that haven’t lost their character through over-restoration. Inspections welcome. Serious buyers only.
