Just curious, but how common were they in australia, considering where i am with my notch, i know of 2 others, one a 69, one a 72 in the same suburb as me? > Of course there are a > few early ones about, but their age makes them rarer anyway. > As for Alex in the US, I believe VWoA never officially imported the Notch, > as the Type3 only became available in the US after the Fasty had become the > main "sedan" model.

Especially if > you want a '70 to go with the other two! So, that means that the notch i have, if in america would be VERY rare (71 auto dual carb). If so, approximately how much could i get for a show condition (lowered, custom paint, big stereo, full retrim, Empi porche like rims, whitewalled tires, custom exhaust, slightly worked motor) notch like mine will be eventually.
