So, does that mean that i wasn't all that wrong when i ran my 1970 T-1 1500 on 5,5" sprint stars, (rear) 4,5" (front), threw away the bumpers and the back seat, lowered it up front and mounted an EMPI leather rimmed steering wheel, EZR shifter, speedwell instruments, bulit a not too hot 1915 engine with a glaspack muffler and so on?
Well, i still got the "no no" from most of the crowd for running a "too new" car for the cal look style back in 1998! For the record, i was not born "back then" when the time was right, but after playing with VW's for a few years i knew what i liked, and i knew what was right for me, not everyone else. Dare peopel!
hear hear!
you wouldn't happen to have any pics of that '70 would you?

Diederick/DVK:
pretty cool cal-look coverage yeah, but there are no late models in that issue right? ::)

I can remember several cal look super beetles ( some quite fast ). As well as more late cal look cars than you could shake a stick at. There were no big big discussions on what look a car had because there really were no catagories that people discuss today. It was more a matter of ...That looks cool .....or ....that guy doesn't get it... My brothers EMPI demonstrator ( A '73 ) was A car with a big reputation of being fast ...and it was.... And was always refered to as a cal look car. It had 145s up front 185s in back and was lowered. All Empi cars I knew at the time were fast and lowered. The only ones that weren't seemed to be the ones in the Empi literature; although I do have at least one picture in an EMPI catalogue of a lowered GTV.
