The Italian Cal-look and Rasto-Cal scene is growing about car's number and restoration quality .The Italy is famous for vintage-classic-original-museum VW, so the Cal-look movement is a novelty. Here you can see the best Italian cars.

















There are other cool projects on the stocks in Italy......for exemple......... racing turbo Oval, two gasser, two '67 and one '65, and 2332 motor for the agave green Oval above.

That's all folks!!!! Grin Ciaooooooo
