BK member to build a GL Notch

Well I heard from Scott Jones tonight and the search for a Notch has turned up a very clean, rot free, nice paint, 5x130 disc brake equiped, with all new parts in boxes to build a 2007 and a set of Fuchs with nice tires. He went to Jakes with me yesterday and it looks like he wants to go for a 2056 type 4 and 901 trans. he has a 1.7 and trans from a 914 the will be the cores for the drivetrain and Jake will help him in any way he can to get the BK Prez. into a type 4 GL. He will still be a BK member with a sweet GL notch for his daily driver. I think that is just the way it shold be, GL car to drive, BK car to drag on the trailer. I hope to see Scott as a VKG member very soon. :agree:

Man am I jealous!!!

That's great to gain a new member, especially when he's the president of another club!

Scott will be a great addition to the club in more ways than one....Knowing the quality of his cars I am looking forward to seeing the notch when it is done.

I believe it is a 65. It belonged to the guy that runs the parts dept. at Herrell's Bug Parts. I had the rear drums drilled for him after the BK Dyno Day. He was going to GL the car but then needed to sell the project so Scott bought it.

BTW, VKG Prez should have a GL Notch soon as well. I should have my
brothers 69 Notch very shortly. The 62 RHD Notch will probably be gone
soon. I may be trading it for a free paint job on my ragtop

actually, there used to be a website called the darksiders and it was all
about Type 3's that were totally custom (non-stock). Since that time I have
seen many people refer to custom vws of any type as being on the darkside
(as opposed to being stock or on the light side)

But I see your point as well
