Volkswagen Type 3 — Concept, Design, International Production Models & Development

by Simon Glen

This book tells the definitive international story of the Volkswagen Type 3. Simon Glen writes from first-hand experience, having owned seven Type 3s - five Variants, a 1500 Notchback and a 1500S Karmann Ghia - which have been driven through Africa, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.

Covering the Type 3's 20 year production span, and detailing Type 3 Notchbacks, Fastbacks, Variants and the Karmann Ghia, this book provides a fascinating insight into the history and production of these classic cars.
