When you drive around in LA, you see alot of personalised license plates, just like this one:
 
TYP3VW
 
Kobus also saw NOZEFXR on a very high $ porsche car.
the guy might be a … nose fixer ?

This car belongs to a member from the UK-“branch” of the USA club German Folks. The German Folks is a well known Resto-Cal club that turns out lovely cars … Also this notchback is realllllly high standard.
 
resto cal = original car, lowered as in SLAMMED, shiny wheels, roofracks, options galore, very high standard!
 

Another fine example of the D-O treatment (see some posts below)(Dave Orozco), is this georgeous 1500S squareback, with red interior, 99mile deep black paint, and very nice polished 2-piece empi GT wheels (yes, the real thing-not repro’s). And of course, the US style bumpers and the Abarth auspufffff…
 
Dave always seems to put some magic in his realisations !  

E for economy,
or how to get your twin carb with a central carburettor,
and still having all the S-trim!
 
this picture really freaks me out.
i have never seen one ‘live’, so at this moment this picture on my desktop will have to do…

this would be the end for this poor notchback. See how it becomes one with mother earth …

Here you see a nice set of notches… in a barnfind. The guy also found a judson supercharger for volkswagen beetles in that barn.
Hmmm … i allready found a notch in a barn … but i cannot top two in a barn together with a judson !

This dragrace notch from competion engineering in tempe arizona, sports a 2645cc engine.
And it is lightning fast…

Seems that wolfsburg used the cabrio prototype for driving it through Germany in the 2000km rally. Too bad the weather was really bad …

Here is a better pic of the ex-notch from jelle who has now also a BLOGS about dragrace beetles. It is a car that is very simple, and very pure ! correct stance and the nicest wheels you can imagine for that 4 bolt car ! Empi four lug sprintstars !
 
I have two or three of those wheelsets for sale at decend prices !
 
mail me if you are interested !

vintage tuning for 1500 S also exists…
 
check out this 1500 S engine equipped with a Bosch 010 distributor, and an oil pump block off from OKRASA.
 
i really would like to know what kind of heads this engine will sport, also the manifolds and the carburettors would interest me …
