    Indeed! That is a really nice looking long hood you have there.

    Is that a Type IV hiding behind the 911? Tell us more…

    It's a local garage find. The car was purchased in 72' and has reside in Austin for it's entire life. I'm the fourth owner of only for 4 months. The 3rd owner have had it since 76'. It has ~145k miles with original Signal Yellow paint. The paint looks good from a far, but up close there's a lot of rock chips and dings. Everything else on the car is mostly original. I have the original steelies and hub caps and also radio. It was a daily driver for the 3rd owner up till early 2000, but has sat in his garage since then. It had a bad oil leak that I had to remedy. It also came with with a set of Cookie Cutter wheels that I've since replaced with 16" Fuchs. I've also removed the dealer installed A/C system. I'm slowly learning about the car and working to fix or replace items that I feel are needed or to my liking. Other than that, I plan to leave the car as is. I'm lucky to have found this beauty as it's a once in a lifetime deal that I couldn't pass up. Let me know if you have any question and I'll be happy to answer.

    Thanks,
    Ducky

    All I know is that it's a square back VW. The pic was taken at a local meetup.

    Your wood wheel looks great and is probably nice to drive with, but don’t ever part with that original wheel. Many of us old timers have a collection of wheels, as they are pretty easy to swap around.

    In fact it’s a good idea to keep every old part you remove, even if it seems worthless at the time.

    72T non sunroof and Signal Yellow. Great score! The dash looks to be in good condition as well. Hopefully rust free being in that climate as well. Nice.

    Thanks Bill. I was planning to attend this year's Rallye, but it occurs right at the start of Spring Break. Unfortunately, the wife has already made travel plans with the kids. Hopefully next year.
