Exterior

Surely one of the best-looking Type 3 models with its stunning silhouette, tapered rear windows and louvred panels, this rare Fastback oozes 60s cool. Available only for the 1967 production year, the Regatta blue paintwork is a rare sight indeed and suits the Fastback’s lines perfectly. Incredibly, a lot of the panels still wear the original factory coat of paint, extremely unusual to find on a vehicle of this vintage. In more recent years, some of the panels have seen paint however, all-in-all this is a very original example with a beautiful level of patina. The bodywork and underside are structurally very solid. The Fastback sits on steel wheels with whiteband tyres and the original beauty rings.

Interior

The interior space is equally original throughout, including the headlining and carpets. The seats still have the familiar spring when seated and the large steering wheel feels lovely in-hand. A gear stick extender has been added for convenience, as well as a venetian rear window blind and a set of period correct Coco-mats (an accessory sold by VW from the mid-sixties onwards). Wider than its relative the Beetle, and with a decent rear seat, the Type 3 Fastback makes for a very usable, practical classic car.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

In recent years the 1584cc engine has been treated to a set of rebuilt original Solex carbs and a NOS exhaust system. In April ‘23 the car went to NJ’s Auto Emporium for the brakes and steering to be gone through, as well as replacing a broken ignition switch and barrel with a good original unit; it was also given a full service at the same time. More recently the oil strainer gaskets and oil filter pipe gasket have been replaced. The 4-speed manual gearbox is smooth to operate and the twin-carb pancake motor pulls through the rev range with ease, with a surprising amount of torque on offer.

History File

First registered on the 5th October 1967 by the supplying dealer Renwicks Garages (Newton Abbot) the Fastback has been in the hands of just 5 keepers from new and is a genuine UK-supplied example. Within the history file you will find the original Renwicks Garage folder and document wallet, including the instruction manual and service book (stamped 12 times by the supplying dealer between 1967–76). Various invoices for servicing and parts dating back to 1998, as well as three VW magazines that feature this example (Volks World 1995, Volks World 2000, and more recently Volks World September 2023). There are also various MOT certificates to be found dating back to 1989 and a handful of original 60s Fastback brochures.
