car forums. where a lot of peoples good intentions end up taking a good old car off the road forever never ever to see the road again. 🥲
You guys must see rust in your sleep.
The notch and beetle with the Raders look great (mind you they all look great, I'm just more partial to Raders). Do you know which manufacturer they are? The only two I know of doing (what I presume are) 17" are:

Nice work mate, some cool pics and rides there....the notch has to be my fave. I can empathise with the rust - any splitty resto's that don't need the full bottom 8 - 10 inches right around is a bonus for us nowadays!

Nice , i love what you have done to the whiteish notch

Tell me about it.. Inspiration.. Mines got all those features..

Nice work on the notch front beam guys. Ive seen other attempts at fitting a type 1 beam but yours looks good
cheers
If it wasn't for people like Adam and Mike bringing them back to life, these cars would end up being crushed for scrap - gone forever. More power to you blokes!
Cheers, Greg
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!
Love the A pillar repair, wonderful to see the final result.
Thats not rust, it's ah ... orange primer ... yep that's what it is ...
Thanks for sharing great shots of your work, inspiring for amateurs like me😎
seems I'm not the only one on here lovin' that Notch!! stunning machine!
glad to see you guys have got plenty of work coming through the doors, well done.
keep posting pics! (more of that Notch would be a good idea too!! 😂)

Im also lovin the notch. Are the wheels 17x7 if so do you have any trouble with tyre rubbing at that size. Also with that size wheel do you have to narrow the front beam?
Pretty sure that thats the reason the notch was posted on here. Think they fitted a Type 1 beam in it.. Looks like it mounts differenty to the standard type 3 ??
Seems like allot of work.. Cant you buy narrowed type 3 beams ready to go ??

LOVE the light blue 60's bug with radars. What engine is that running? I was behind it a few weeks ago and it seemed pretty quick!

yes indeed, wheels ripped the guards big time so thats why it came down... we designed and built the beam from scratch, was roughly 4 inch narrow over stock and even had shocks (most kits done overseas do not with that much of a chop) utilises 3 of the 4 original mounting points and one custom one at the bottom of the bulkhead to increase ground clearance.... not available off the shelf yet but will be making them soon, at them moment they are made on order.... cheers adam

Good stuff, Adam (and Waldron)!
I agree, that Type 1 beamed Notch looks the goods.
Hopefully, mine will be in this thread soon with before and after pics 😉
Cheers,
