Over 100 new entries since launch!
Thanks to everybody that has signed up and entered their Type 3's. Over 100 new entires in 2 months to push us to a little bit under 700. I'd love to have 1,000 Type 3's in the Registry by the end of the year.

February 2008
Welcome to the Type 3 Registry!
This has been a long time in the making, but it's been well worth the wait. The entire site has been rewritten from scratch and given a modern look and feel. Many hours have been put into this site to ensure that it will be up and running in a semi-automated format for a long time coming.
New features include:
"My Registry" feature. Create a login and register multiple VIN's per account.
Instructions
Entering vehicles into the Type 3 Registry is quick and easy.
Click on the "My Registry" button and create or login to your account.
Click the "Add a Car" link and then fill in the necessary information.
The administration team will then check your entry for accuracy and approve the entry quickly.
*Please Note*
If you would like to update one of the legacy records in the Type 3 Registry, created before the switchover to the new site, I will have to manually remove the entry in the Registry. Once removed, you will then be able to enter the VIN back into the registry. Please contact us and provide your Name, Email Address and VIN and I will remove the old entry. I know this is a little cumbersome, but for the time being it's the cleanest way to update the older records.
Site Information
The purpose of the Registry is to locate and document all of the remaining Type 3 cars around the world. The Type 34 is included to provide a combined record for the entire Type 3 family. Please be sure that any data submitted for a Type 34 is also included in the Type34 Registry, which is dedicated specifically to this model. Many thanks to SquareD who originally created the Type 3 Registry and all the hard work he put into it.
The Registry is not just for cars that are still on the road, but also for those cars that will never again see the road. This includes those unfortunate cars that have been wrecked, ended up in a salvage yard, or are being parted out. Please note that you do not need to be the owner of a car to submit it to the Registry, but a VIN is required to properly and uniquely identify each submission, and the Country/State where the car is located.
The Registry is concerned about your privacy, and will not disclose your E-mail address to anyone outside of the Registry. You also have the option to either allow the complete VIN to be shown, or to block the last 3 digits. While the primary focus of the Registry is the documentation of the cars, please feel free to provide any additional information about the history of your car that you want. The inclusion of multiple photos is highly encouraged, but not required.
Almost all of the information you provide will be selected from drop-down menus. All of the drop-down menus are required, but if none of the drop-down options is correct or appropriate for your car, please select the "N/A" option (the last option) and provide the correct information in the "Notes" field at the bottom of the page. Upon receipt of your submission, your correction/addition will be verified and the page will then be updated. With your help, we can continue to improve and expand the information presented in the Registry.
