The Cal-look Lounge

Hello my fellow vintage freaks - Just thought I would drop in and say hello - I am a new member on here and based in the UK

So who's coming over for the Volksworld Show 2006 - My Mayers Manx is going to be in the show  :) 8)

Hi everyone,

I´m also new here and want to follow monkiboy an say hello!
I´m from Germany, my cars are an oval and a 60th ragtop in restoration.

Greetings

Christoph

There's a lot of Norwegians coming over this year. Can't wait!

Hi Monkiboy and Christoph,

four of us DFL members will be at the Volksworld Show (like the last eight years). You can find us in the KK swap meet at the window side. We usually wear our club shirts so you can't miss us.
Drop by and say hello if time allows.

So Christoph, your from Germany? Where are you from? Good to see some more Germans here. Are both of your cars off the road or do you restore only the 60s rag?
Cheers,

Georg

Hi guys,

I`m coming to the volksworld show together with some friends of mine. Let`s hope we will get the same weather as last year.

Best rgs

Welcome Monkiboy  ;)

How about a sneak preview of the Manx?
Or will I have to wait until we are face to face...??  ::)

Oh yes...let's see the Manx! There are just too many ugly buggies out there...but the Manx is just puuuuuuuurty from every angle.  :-*

Hi Georg,

I´m from Hannover, we had a short talk at the MCM last year, my car was the blue primered, daily driven oval with sprintstars. It´s still on the road and since last summer with historical plate, so I can drive it the hole year ;).

Hope the 60th ragtop is finished 30.4. but in the moment the car is in parts, the chassis is wellded and painted and the body is in sandblasting. It´s lots of work and time is running.

Please excuse my bad school English ;)

Greetings

Christoph

Well you have a couple of pic's JHU - you can post one for me if you like (I'm having some trouble with my PC)  :) but I am keeping a few things to myself until the big day ;)

Let me know what you think guys.

Hi Christoph,

now I remember you! Tell me how someones car look like and I will usually remember a face to it, but rarely a name - so bare with me.

And don't worry about your english. Most people here are no native speaker, so most of the time no one realises the mistakes we make. I for myself prefer to speak english because then I don't have to check how to spell words.  ;D

Hope to see you again at the MCM. I won't be there with my Ghia, because the new engine is still in pieces. But at least the car is ready for the big one with the wider opening for the engine lid, new paint, Pro Street gearbox, swingaxle subframe with IRS arms, baywindow CV joints, and so on... My aim is to race the car in Bitburg and maybe – just maybe – at the SCC. Maybe...

Anyway, good to see you here!
Cheers,

Georg

Hi Georg,

sounds impressive for me. Which color will your car get , maybe a nice metallflake paintjob  ;D ?

Greetings

Christoph

Hi Christoph,

the color will stay the same. It's just repainted in the enginebay and the inner wheel arches.
Cheers,

Georg

This is Monkiiboy's buggy....  timetravel!!?

Very nice! Looks like one of my favourite buggies!

Wheels are really in die place , the hardtop with flower is missing now  :o
