Code-3 buses are, specifically, promotional issues of the VW Bus that are NOT released to mainstream collectors. They're usually found at events, such as the Hot Wheels Collectors Nationals. Code-3's can be made by customizers, companies...you name it. Often, the end product is absolutely stunning. In this section, I'll list some of the better ones as I find them. If you've got any cool ones to add, please email the pics to me at the email address on the main page of this site! |
