Michael, You should have no problem swapping the type3 pan from the same year from a Notch, Fastback, or Squareback. Call over a few friends and get after it. Kinda like "raising the barn" in the old days. It's a friends and family thing. I'm getting ready to swap a 68 Fastback pan under a 65 Notch Body. Notch Pan is toast. Only thing to really be concerned about is the "vin" number on your car(s). Once you make the swap your Notch will have a new (different) vin number as it is stamped on the tube on the pan. Not really a problem until (of if) you ever decide to sell it. Something to consider. If decided I'll own by Notch forever, for better or worse. This VW relationship is kinda like a marriage don't you think? If you start your project before I do, let me (us) know how it goes. I'll be interested to "look over your shoulder" as you do the swap via this e-mail list. I'm sure others on the list will be watching closely too! kj __________________ Ken Jones kjones@cwo.com '65 Notch '68 Fastback +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Michael Walford wrote: > > I have a couple questions I was hoping that someone could give me a > little assistance with. > > First, I was wondering if anyone has ever put a five lug adapter on a > type III wheel?
