Kafer's Rat Notch...All But..(Now registered)
Stanley - June 6th, 2004 at 06:20 PM

The Notch is having a roadworthy tomorrow
Still a bit of cosmetic stuff to day but mechanically it's now pretty good.
Will be chasing a set of moon discs soon ready for the Matt black paint job and flames

thats a sweet ride


Stanley - June 8th, 2004 at 06:56 AM

It was slammed until I put the 15'' rims on it. Managed to find some 4" rims which are on the front however the kumho's are like 4WD tyres. Going to go down another spline on the front. Might even go back to 14's yet.

Passed roadworthy yesterday so will be reg'd by the end of the week. Took it for a drive down the street. Drives nothing like a beetle and its so roooooomy.

Anyone got any 15" moon discs?

Whoo Hoo got it registered today
No dramas there..however insurance different story
Rang RACQ who I have two other cars insured with and have had for many years.
They said that Type3's were only brought into the country from '71 - '73
So as far as they are concerned it's not a genuine import so they weren't interested. WTF...!
So Shannons got my business again.

Typical....




I think i have a wheels mag here from 1969 with the name of the importers here somewhere....

hey kafer, you can see by the big wide grin (2nd pic) he/she is happy.

Q: why do type 3's etc all have such a wide grin.. wat do they know that the bugs don't? lol. They all look so happy.

now are we basing the dates for the 'legal' klubvw ippy lappin gala on the completion of this project? ie matt black, flames, thumpin stereo etc? lol

Stanley - June 13th, 2004 at 04:46 PM

Maiden voyage today only 20k's or so but it didn't stop, catch fire, crash and nothing fell off (that i know of) so I guess it was a success.

Can't believe how much different they are to drive than the beetle.

Well like them or not it's a nother VW on the road where it belongs.

:bounce
