The Cal-look Lounge

I know this should go in "Happenings", but since many won't go there this week, I decided to post here.

DKP is organizing its 6th "Santa's Lil'L Helper" driving cruise this Sunday! Don't miss it, if you're in town.
Here is the info: "DEC 5  DKP's 6th Santa's Lil' Helper Driving Cruise, Fullerton, CA. Der Kleiner Panzers VW Club invites you to a 20-plus-mile driving cruise through the streets of Orange County. The drive will start and finish at Nick's Burgers in Fullerton (1712 W. Orangethorpe Ave.). Please meet at 4:30 p.m.; driving cruise will roll at 5:00 p.m. sharp. All streetable VWs welcome. This is a free event, but please bring an unwrapped toy to be donated to a charity."

See you this weekend!

  Gonna be another Kick Ass cruise!  see you all there.

Looks like the weather won't be that bad after all for tonights Cruz! Maybe cold, but thats what jackets are for. And yup! I think tonight will be kick ass..... Stephan, post some more pics of past Xmas Cruz's, there cool!

Ted

Mike & I would like to Thank DKP for another great Christmas Cruise.

 And eveyone was so generous.  There were so many toys for the kids!  That was so awesome to see!

Hope everyone made it home safe and sound!

We hope you all have the Best Holidays ever!

Take Care!

Susy & Mike Herbert

First time I've used my wipers in over 25 years......thank goodness they still work !!!
The lights were absolutely beautiful. My wife, Peri & I will go back on a DRY NIGHT
sometime in the next weeks. Thanks, DKP for a nice event for a good cause.  ;D

Great night rain or shine!  ;)

Thanks DKP

As for myself, a first for my wipers also. But leaving for home they died. Then the rain came down good. But all was good, made it home without a hitch, or wreck. Had a great time, another great cruz as usual. Thanks DKP!


Ted

Sorry to say, I managed to get out the door yesterday without my camera :-[  Sharon and I had a great time... the rain brought back fogged up window memories of days gone by.  Thanks to all who came out and supported our gig! 8) 8)

Good times last night guys, so it rained big deal... great turn out anyway. Rick Sadler and I had fun sharing old VW biz memories while crusing Lambert with no headlights. Trip home was a soaker!
Who makes a 1-3/4 header with heaters?  ::)

  Oh Jim  heaters are for OLD guys....   

   An amazing turnout for a rainy night good times though.  And I officially think it sucks driving in the rain with NO wipers.  Had to duck out very early sorry for those I did not say goodbye. There was a huge amount of toys which was great.  Awesome night despite the weather and a real showing of the generosity of the community. I echo John in being happy to see Roger out there and Glenn sorry I didn't get to say hi.  See you again soon.

  P.S.    No camera for me either Dammit

Oh Jim  heaters are for OLD guys....   

This OLD GUY thourghly enjoyed his heater throught the final part of the drive and all the way home...................      ;) ;) ;)

CSP makes heaterboxes in 38, 42, 45 and 48 mm. ;)

Good to know, thanks!

Rain-X is your best friend the the rain... wipers or no wipers!  ;)

Anybody have any pictures yet? I had a blast last night but a little conflict of interest in my car. I was sideways most of the way up Bastanchury Ave (the rain was coming down in buckets), the kids were screaming go faster and the wife was yelling slow down................yah, we know who won that argument

ROFL!

                                                                          Gezundheit.

Tell us more how you get fogged windows  ;D ;D

Awsome turn out guys!! Great to see everyone again and to see some of your wipers even worked  ;D welcome to the everyday life of living in the north west

:D   :D    :D    :D

What, moist? ;)

Any pictures yet?

What... of the fogged widows??  ;D

Come on , somebody out of the 100 cars had to take some pictures, even in the rain?

I know that DKK Fred took some pics but he's having internet issues.

Hey Rick, we can just keep commenting back and forth here to make sure the thread doesn't die!

We could!  ;D ;D

Missed you at the Cruise!

I don't think I've met your wife.

You have, it was over 23 + years ago back when I bought Jim Moore's notchback

LOL... ok maybe I have!   ;)

Here's one.

Here's another.

Cool pics John, it's a start....

hows the weather in Fullerton John?

GLENN!!!  :o

Don't get him started here!  ;)   ;D

The weather in Fullerton, today...

 ;D ;D  :D

John can we have a few recipes with Nutella ?

So that's why there's no pics of the event ? Everyone was holding a Nutella jar in one hand and a spoon in the other, instead of a camera ?

I saw this long-hair taking LOADS of photos... anybody recognize him ???

Somebody buy that guy a haircut – or an Alice band!  ;D

 ;D ;D ;D

where are the party pants?

DAMN... someone beat me to it!!  ;D ;D ;D

Hey Jim, cools pics from your phone, had my camera, and nothing came out, had problems with the settings. Time for a new one I guess. Carry on! Gotta be more people with pics.

Ted

Alright alright, here is a picture!
More to come soon in Ultra VW.
Had a great time on Sunday, driving with Hector in his '67 (yep, real magnesium BRMs in the rain...)
I counted about 75 cars at one point, but more showed up later; so I think about 85 air-cooled VWs participated. Not too shabby considering the weather.

Some pics of this very cool and wet Xmas cruise night...
