Hi Robbie the part is wrong just tried to fit it and it won't mine as it's 1971 what year is you dad's car ? The bolt size on mine is 19 mm and the spacing is 3 inches on the calipers vw spares is 2 1/4 for early type 3

Didn't think the early type 3 had disks on front?

I will have a pair of good calipers as soon as I get around to doing a conversion will be a month or so though if you can wait.
