<x-charset iso-8859-1>Three months after I made the deal, two months after I paid for them and now they're finally at their new home. I picked up my '70 Fastback and my '72 Notchback on Thrusday. The Notch needs lots of work, starting with the rockers. I've already got a parts car with good rockers, and someone to weld them in, so next month that part will be done. I'm going to the Classic in California and will be scouring the lower half of the state for some late model notch fenders. Current fenders are off a '66 Notch that the PO parted out before he left Germany. He brought this car over in 1997 and let it sit in his garage since then while he collected parts. I have almost all NOS rubber for this car, including the window scrapers. Here are the links to the notch pictures: 1972 VW 1600L Notchback The way it looks now: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/notch01.jpg Rocker rust: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/notch03.jpg Cool Westfalia type 3 tow hitch: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/notch04.jpg http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/notch05.jpg NOS window scrapers (not for sale): http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/notch-scraper.jpg 1970 VW Fastback Apparently it had a vinyl top at one time. It got scraped off and painted white: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/fasty01.jpg Inside from drivers side.

Interior is from aformentioned '66 Notch that was parted out: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/fasty03.jpg These two cars have joined my '65 Notch: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/passenger1.jpg http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/rear1.jpg The '65 will probably be sacraficed to get the '72 on the road. If anyone want's to buy it, it'll be for sale soon for about $2500. I've also selling my magazine collection to help finance the cost of fixing the '72. I have a complete set of Hot VW's from 1967 to present, complete VW Trends from 1976 to present, complete Volkswagen Greats, complete VW & Porsche, an almost complete european car, and about 125 issues of Foreign Car Guide. I've been collecting these magazines for quite a while, but all they do is sit in the garage. I would rather drive a car than have the magazine to reference. My last picture -- I've finally got the complete set of Dealer Manuals for the Type 3: http://www.cableone.net/notchback/images/stuff/books.jpg They are, from left to right; Type 3 workshop bulletins, Type 3 suggested repair time, Types 1,2&3 repair time, 1961 Workshop Manual Volumes 1 & 2, 1965 Workshop Manual Volumes 1 & 2, 1961 parts book, 1963 parts book, 1969 parts book.
