Late Models...
Jordy/DVK:
I think the Old School Cal-Look is suitable for all cars up to 1970. These cars don't have those "ears" for ventilation behind the rear window and still had nice classic colours.
Super beetles (02's and 03's) look way too 70ies for a Cal-looker, and I think that the indicators in the front bumper and also the Elephant-feet are not done for a Cal-Looker...
But a 1200 up to '74 would make a nice Cal-Looker though...
I would put the border somewhere between 70&75... ( 02/03's excluded )
SOB/RFH:
I have this 1972 Hot Rod Magazine showing all the cars of the DKP car club back then...black and white and even Gene Berg did fit in the mag......the white Arons car is there and Flemmings oval and type 3:s........So I like the late model cars...they were part of the deal in my way of thinking........One of the best examples are "The Dumper" a Super beetle from back in the day and a lot of inspiration to me!! Late models are cool!!
BABOON:
This brown/green -69 looker is my favourite. Big motor, cool wheels and tires and a perfect 70`s paintjob. And of course, dual mufflers. No fat boy muffler
Jon:
Holly shit on toast! :o
You like that car?? You must be sick ;-)
Georg/DFL:
Even if it is hard to imagine, but late ('68-'72 regular) beetle were a big part of the scene back in the 70s and early 80s. Jim "Sarge" Edmiston had one, Bill Schwimmer had one... I can't say if they used supers as well, but if you have a look in the June 76 issue you will see, that they showed (in the Cal Look section) how to lower a 1302! And how about John Deans 1303 Looker? He was a member of the DKK (Der Kleiner Kampfwagens), a Cal Look Club in the late 70s and early 80s, that started after the demise of DKP II. That car has it all... 135-15s and 185/70s on 5,5s Fuchs, 1776 cc with IDAs, period perfect interieur, single color...
Well, I have to admit.... it would look stange in between our cars...
