I've cut back and polidhed the roof since then, gradually getting around the rest of the paint too. It'll be shiny but ratty.

My '72 Notchback

Liam_81 · 16 Mar 2006, 9:52 pm

my current notch...

I used to have a 72 square that i sold... not sure where it is now, the guy said it was in queensland, it was light blue (same as jo tas), it was slammed, had all louvres (spelling) bucket seats, eyelids,retrimmed door skins, quick shift kit + big stereo. Now i am desperate to get another square, but short nose this time. Holla out if you know of any going.

62deluxe · 17 Mar 2006, 1:40 am

Love the red notch. The T34 looks pretty sweet too. They would have to be my ultimate VW. I'd like one of each in the shed- a square, a notch, a fasty and a T34 KG. Nice to dream.

Oh and then there is that slammed Hebmuller..........

62deluxe · 17 Mar 2006, 12:29 pm

It'd be nice if the shed looked something like this....

ragtopp · 30 Mar 2006, 9:42 pm

Thanks Steve. I love the old Notchy aswell. It was rescued from under pine trees where she had been left to die. To make it better it goes insane and pulls the big ton (100mph) up hills easy as. I have no idea what has been done internally to the motor, it was in it when i bought the car. Its been lowered in the rear since that shot.

62deluxe · 30 Mar 2006, 10:20 pm

I've been in that thing and can vouch for the power, the stopping on the other hand........

no more room on the trailer 🙁 if one was a square back, it would be mine for sure.

An early notchy and you left it to die, man let the people know where to get her from if your not interested. Theres demand for notchys matey

Liam_81 · 6 Apr 2006, 8:47 pm

We haven't left it to die... the reason why i haven't told anyone is because we are still deciding if we want to go back and get them. But if anyone wants to beat us to it... they are in Leeton, NSW.You will have to talk to the owner of the scrap yard though. From what i know, the owners last name is wallace and he wasn't available to speak to.

Liam_81 · 6 Apr 2006, 8:48 pm

oh, i have more pics of them if anyone wants to have a better look. U2U me.

jo_tas · 10 Aug 2006, 9:03 pm

Hey! The car's a daily driver.. i wouldn't go much lower than that!

But, the front wheels/tires are stopping me from lowering it.. oh well

Liam_81 · 10 Aug 2006, 9:36 pm

You sure? check my old one out, it had pretty wide rims/tyres on it (can't remember the width) and it was lowered a fair bit for a daily + for tyres that size. It only scrubbed when there were 3+ people in it.

Dowit spoonman :P

jo_tas · 10 Aug 2006, 9:43 pm

thats spoonGIRL to you :P

but yeah, think the offset or tire profile is too high.. where it sits now there's only about a finger's width between the tire and the wheel arch, when someone is in it. 😠

i didn't want to get low profile tyres and lose my highway speed.. cause that's where i do alot of driving.. oh, and the tyres are 195/65 R15's

Liam_81 · 10 Aug 2006, 9:53 pm

Sorry banana girl :P what if you pumped/rolled the guards? you should be able to get it tucking at least.

jo_tas · 10 Aug 2006, 9:58 pm

Yeah... the car's in bits at the moment so i'll get it looked into while its in the bodyshop.. i'm getting the rear guards rolled.. its just the front's when the wheels are turned that's a problem

Liam_81 · 10 Aug 2006, 10:13 pm

ahhh, bummer. So if you do lower it anymore you will be doing the Austen Powers 200 point turn.... anyway, nothing a rubber mallet can't fix. LOL

mainly steel, a bit of filla to make them blend right tho. the car has been in the family for years.

has evolved to end up with late disc front, I.R.S rear, koni shocks all round, 27mm S.AW torsion bars and whiteline race sway bars, mandatory lowering....handles pretty damn fine. the idea was to set it up so 'lil sissy wouldn't face any handling difficulties-EVA!

pushed along by twin 36mm dellorto fed 1776 with electronic ignition- remote cooler behind front bar a real girly set up:P.....she has earnt herself some more performance with cam, port/polish job and ratio rockers coming soon. maybe one day a subie turbo like the race car

berg stick, SAAS seats, rear pop outs, formuling steering wheel, factory rev counter and instrument clad centre console make driving a breeze
