Summary
This 1973 Volkswagen Type 3 Squareback is a clean, well-sorted example from its final production year, showing just under 48k indicated miles. It features a single repaint in its original Marina Blue, reupholstered front seats, and a 1,600cc flat-four paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The car boasts a lifetime of adult ownership, having been driven by its original owner into her 80s before being recently acquired by a BaT regular.
