If it was perfect, it would have a 48 motor to back up it's looks!  ;) My opinion anyway. That and I would put amber tops on it... I know you guys are trying to look like US code cars but most if not all US Cal-Looks ran amber tops.

No, Nicolas was right - if you are using our taillights to be different, than we should use yours. I mean - there is no point to use European taillights in Europe when you want them to be "different" ;) So, 'European cal-looker' should have red tops  ;D
Seriously though - I'm not a big fan of American taillights. They are not as visible for other drivers.

As for the car, I like it very much. I have it's pictures downloaded from old-droppers forum and even used one as wallpaper. Nice job Nicolas. Think again about those front tires - the ones you have look great IMO and are certainly better then 145's as far as braking and handling is concerned.

Once again! The photos you took really bring out the best in your car!
It looks so cool. I've never been a fan of Enkei wheels, but seeing them on your 67 makes me think twice ;)

What colour is it by the way? Or did you post it on page 1 already?

No, Nicolas was right - if you are using our taillights to be different, than we should use yours. I mean - there is no point to use European taillights in Europe when you want them to be "different" ;) So, 'European cal-looker' should have red tops  ;D
Seriously though - I'm not a big fan of American taillights. They are not as visible for other drivers.

Agreed. I've always had European headlights on every car I've ever owned, dating back to 1979. But on my current car, I decided to be different and get a set of Hella all red U.S. spec tail lights on my '67 Beetle. Everyone's telling me to change to the amber tops. The more I hear that, the more I like my red tops. HAHA!! Perhaps one day, if I find a really nice set of Hellas (not Hassias), I might consider it.

Is the body trim on this blue car from a '66? Looks too thick to be a '67.

Post by: Nico-67 on April 14, 2008, 22:04:33 pm
Yes, the trim is from a 66, i buy it like that  ;)

I have to say you ride sits very nicely on the Flat 4 Enkeis - and wierd how they look even coioler in black and white!

. . . the front tyres look great, must drive far better than the dumb 145s I have - definately stick with them on a daily driver.


I had a stock '72 bug when I was 18, Cal Look was all about pastel colours and matching empi 5 copies! - wasn't convinced at the time and stuck with my stocker - you must be having a blast in such a sweet looking ride!

Congrats!

Thanks guys !
My front tyres are dead, i want to change for 145/15 but I think that is really hard to drive with the 5.5 Enkei.
You have tested that ?

145/15 front and 195/70 rear  ;)

GREAT CHOICES!!! I've got the 135's but they are pretty low on a 5,5j brm rim.

looking forward to see the end result.

Not 145 in the front but 165/65 because 145 was very dangerous...

And another goodie !

Looking really nice this! I personally preferred it with the Enkei's but it still looks sweet with the BRM's. Good job!

Post by: Diederick/DVK on April 02, 2010, 16:05:45 pm
come to think of it, a matching black fuel gauge would suit your dash very well.

p.s. did you glue the porsche emblem on? hint...   :-\


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: Nico-67 on April 02, 2010, 19:01:20 pm
Thanks guys !
The emblem was here when I buy the steering wheels, so I don't touch it.
For my fuel gauge, it is in project !! ;)

And I think you should consider a engine overhaul because your oil pressure is REALLY low.

Yes, but it must be narrowed because I have a lot of friction between tyres and wing

i can understand that. i did mine 10cm, approximately 4 inches. you may wana consider 3 inches and also adding adjusters. i am using same wheels also.

after narrowing, it wasnt as low as i had wanted it and this is with Airkewld spindles.

Nice Nico ! Paint the headlights rims blue, and vent windows trim black. ;) Tires look fine to me.


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: wolfswest on October 17, 2010, 14:33:19 pm
I would paint the headlight rings and the sidetrim blue, and leave the rest of the parts black...

Nice that's a daily and that you keep on detailing the car!  ;)  thumbs up!

I have to paint windows trim too
I'm agree for lights rings, it will be better in blue


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: Nico86 on October 17, 2010, 16:13:34 pm
Paint the decklid 1300 logo, lucas turn signals, rear view mirror. And I would also paint the rear view mirror inside the car.  ;)


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: speedwell on October 17, 2010, 16:25:11 pm
nico 86 may be not the lucas , because if he paint the headlight ring , those will be blue and lucas black ???

Something about the black headlight rings & trim just doesn't look right against that paint colour. The rest of the black details look great. I'd shave the side & hood trim and paint the headlight rings body colour ;)


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: Duck on October 17, 2010, 22:04:22 pm
Leave the headlamp rings black in my opinion, ties in nicely with the rest of the trim :)

No, I think they are too big, and too "modern" for a cal look bug

Hey Nico,

    Check the bead of both tires. I ordered that same exact model and there was an indentation on the bead of one of the tires. The indentation allowed air to escape because the bead was not completely seating on the rim.

Car Looks Great Nico  I like some of the Black Trim but I think I Would go a Different Route I would paint the Headlight rings Body Color so it dosent look like it has two Black Eyes LOL and I would Paint the Body Side and Hood Mouldings Body Color like they do on the Porsches, BMW's & Corvettes I Think that Would Look Good and its not like everyone else has done it!!  just my 2 cents cause I spent the rest!!


Title: Re: My 67 US...
Post by: Nico86 on January 22, 2011, 17:55:18 pm

I would do it too. Black rings are looking good but it looks more like a "racing/rally" style than body color rings.
