Type 3 Invasion 2006


invasion2006_039.jpg

The Invasion was held in Myrtle Creek, Oregon. 44 Type 3's were at the Saturday car show! Please note that the images that look small and thin are panoramic pictures. If you click on the image you'll better see what it is; click on the image (or any other for that matter) and the image will display in a new window in it's full size...which can be rather big but with better clarity.

Under-dash parcel tray


T3_under-dash_tray_001.jpg

Original, after-market under-dash parcel tray for all models of Type III's. Depending how snuggly the retaining screws are set, this parcel tray could easily hold a couple pounds of junk :-)

Single-wheel Trailer


trailer_001.jpg

Ya-hoo! I finally own a single-wheel trailer!! It's a little raw looking right now as the previous owner actually used it for hauling stuff but I plan on making it more pretty because I plan on towing it behind my VW Squareback.

My 1/2 parcel tray


half_parceltray_014.jpg

This is my under-dash prototype. I wanted a parcel tray that was sturdier than the original, wouldn't impede upon the driver's leg room, and wouldn't damage the original vehicle when mounted. I also wanted something more visually appealing as I was not impressed with the original after-market units -- though decently constructed they looked cheap. The plastisol (plasticote) covering on my parcel tray dramatically cleans up the metal work as well as protects it and the contents it holds.

It was really hot this year but there was a very good attendence of Type III's. One of these years we'll get our own category instead of having to share it with the Type IV's...

The First Type III Invasion, 20021076 viewsDuring our caravan towards home, with the T3's mixed within traffic, I was transported back to my childhood days when air-cooled Volkswagens were more prevalent. There were moments when I was swept up in nostalgia and the many trips our family made…"I have to go to the bathroom!" and "Are we there yet?" whispered in the air that enveloped our air-cooled time-machines.Mar 05, 2008

Under-dash parcel tray603 viewsInstalled and what it is. Simply a tray that installs under the dash. My particular model uses a synthetic webbing inside the frame. Rubber trim surrounds the metal frame on the front and sides while the back is black metal trim.Mar 09, 2007
