HN / Nellie / Hotty Notch... 68 Slammed Type 3
Owned now since roughly the Campout in Feburary, when JIMGOW shat it's pants, the HN(Hotty Notch) has been in the garage ever since really..
The Notch is the third VW I currently own, and possibly the best. For those that haven't been in a Type 3, they are far more quiet than a Beetle,
as well as way more room and interior space, including TWO boots.
Anthony(BLKBUG) did a great job with this car, and most of the work and condition can be attributed to him, so by no means can I take the credit for
it. Once I got it, then yeah, whack some more accessories on it from the Beetle or that I had collected, and bingo, cruise it.
The best part is the originallity of the car combined with the ride height and accessories, resulting in something quite different, and something that
is quite individual at this stage.

Splines all round, so lowering not a problem, but the good fellas down at Vollkommen Art perfected the ride height, as well as the tail
lights(clear).
Parts, no dramas yet, but they are still 35 odd years old, like Beetles, but just not as many made of course. |

Swwweeetttt!
Totally agree with you about the plusses of owning a TIII (I have owned 4 of'em!). She's very nice, the factory got it so right with the
Notch didn't they? Jst lay'em down and your set...Well maybe some more hourse power would be the go! Have you checkout Aarons SquarePanel in
the latest Fast Fours & Rotaries Mag? Still go the bug?

Steers beautifully. Uhh... I do have minor problems with bottoming out the suspension mounts when hitting a pothole..
Bump steer.. hmm.. not sure exactly what your definition of that term is.. Hope this helps.

Not for the faint of heart or weak of bowel..
Purists, look away.
This hurt. A lot. A LOT.
After numerous days of thought of how the dummy spots were to be applied, today was the day of climax.
And well... I have to say it... I drilled into the panels. It was like drilling into my soul..
A bit of a pain in the ass I must say. Where they are placed, is on the guards. There was thought of the bonnet, and even the sill of the front
windscreen, but this was best.
