1964 VW Type 3 Notchback For Sale
There are many many different levels of restoration out there in the car world.
There are those quickie respray and cheap seatcover jobs all over the place, but when it comes to cars that
have truly been done to an exceptional level...there are very few.
This is one of those few.
This So Cal based 1964 Notchback is a truly beautiful thing.
Done to absolute show level and built to be a stellar performer as well.
This is one of those "dream cars" that VW nuts from around the world
lust over. The car has been seen around the world as well, having been featured in quite a few
magazine articles from all over this spinning rock we call earth.
Truly classy approach, great colors, stance, wheel choice, etc.
It is custom, but without losing that original design or vibe.
The car has the very desirable factory sunroof which is quite rare indeed.
Crank that baby open and let in the sun!
That deep red interior peeking through in this shot really grabs your eye and pulls you in.
All new felts and details in the sunroof.
Anyone who has every had one of these apart will tell you how difficult it is to get them this clean and work as smooth as this one does.

look at on the show field.
Detail level is fantastic

Vintage Empi "Coach" wheel has been fully restored and color coded to match the interior.

No speedo in this one...the owner's response as to why, was simply..
"When you are going as fast as this car goes...does it really matter?"
Boost gauge... Hmm... must be a turbo out back eh??
More great details
Locking Gene Berg shifter.
Temp gauges and warning lights as well as a shift light are mounted where the factory radio would go.
