Question VW Type 3?

Hello, guys! I have a question: does anybody made 1/24 VW Typ3? as i know, at the moment there are no kits produced. So if anybody knows, please tell.

Re: VW Type 3?

No T3 exists as plastic kit, I'm also very disappointed

But Minichamps makes the three versions at 1/18 (diecast), very detailed but a bit expensive. Very good base for modifications

Yes, forgot this one, but it's still a shame any manufacturer doesn't propose a 1/24 plastic kit of a T3

Re: VW Type 3?

find yourself a Maisto 1:24 diecast, its actually fairly accurate. and nicely done.

Some one was supposed to be doing a resin Type 3, IIRC it was Perry's Resin, but I havent heard anything new about it for about 3 years.

Re: VW Type 3?

This guy is making a resin notchback. The resin bodiy was bad overseas and empinut and Perry's resin also has one that was to be worked on to be casted and sold I guess it is still in the works.

Re: VW Type 3?

Yes, A resin version of the notch is out there.
Perry's resin was gonna cast them I think,but that was a while back.
A guy from Europe ( ? ) I beleive did the original master of it.
Maybe he was from Norway, I can't remember.
You can see it on Modelcars Magazine forum right now.
Bill M is building it, and to my knowledge they are not being sold.
Maybe email Randy of Perry's resin and ask?
The body looks way better than the die cast stuff out.
Oh , look here to see Bills.
