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!

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!

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 ??

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,
