Crazy Svensk Tüp Drei

Now this one looks just plain, except that it seems to be in quite a good condition an that it is a loverly color red. But looks can deceive, this actually is a vintage drivingschool car. A 1500 S which has been, maybe even from factory, converted with dual commando's for gas, brake and clutch. It also has an extra rearview mirror installed and some other neat details. Too bad, I sent the owner a request for more pictures, as they would be invaluable for the avid Belgian Type Three community, but he has never replied.

I guess for most people this one would be less valuable. A welded shut pig nose variant, with a porthole in the back, a very eighties paintjob and to top it all off, really the piece de resistance, a spoked sparewheel on the backdoor. Those were the days my friend, we thought they would never end.

Now this is more like it. Still a butchered pig nose variant but this time as a very well executed pick-up truck. Lovely in white by the way. Look at nice attention to detail as the chrome railing on the bed and the little roofrack on top of the cabin. It's daring, but it shows what the fourth type 3 should have been like instead of the cabrio.

The last type three for today is this rallied notchback. I don't know any specs but the paintjob looks fast as a bat out of hell.
