Taken at the hotel after everything was over. Here are two photos of Mike Gagen's '61 taken in April 2001 at my post Bug-O-Rama barbecue. In the one photo you can see Mike and Rick Mortensen in the background while Shanna Rick's daughter tries on Mikes car for size. The second photo I took from my roof (same day).

Haven't seen or heard from him in a while. So where do you suppose the tomato is today???? Hi Don! Yeah I really enjoyed your generous hospitality that Bug o rama. It gave me a grin seeing that photo on your front lawn hanging out with the great PHX VW guys at your after event party. Allow me to ramble... In your photo my space saver 135 on the rear. ;) Day before at the event last pass of the day the Slick would not keep pressure. I told Frenchy I'd just do a gnarly burn out and try to get the front wheels up but due to the leaking tube should abort the pass. So put some extra air in it and got in line. Damon in the blue car and I lined up, did our burn outs and then the track was shut down for something. Sitting there engine off, door open, helmet off just waiting to feel the car start listing towards ther leaking slick. After it felt like too long we again did burn outs and lined up. Damon and I took off and we both ran it out the end. Close race, was glad the slick stayed inflated. :) The only reason I brought the spare was for Renn Kafer show points. ;D The car is owned and raced by Jen Jevec (just talked to Ken last week, he's doing great) , with a Paradise turbo motor it runs 10s now. I'm out of VW stuff but I do have close ratio 915 with Quaife TBD..now how did Beacher do that... Hope all is well with you and the family. Best, Mike Photo from the day before your party. :D Title: Re: Lets see those Red Cal Lookers. Post by: sam P on December 21, 2007, 20:28:07 pm Constantly evolving:

Post by: mg on December 22, 2007, 02:47:54 am Nice to hear from you again Mike. You should visit here often! thanks Don, I'm not looking for another car hobby, but there is a cool bug I've known about since the mid 80s in San Diego, just a phone call and I'm off the deep end again... The 80's every late model bug was red and they all had gold 8 spokes, they were overplayed like stairway to heaven. ;) Those ruby red bugs are sweet. Have fun, Mike Hey there's Dirk and I back from doing our flying on the ground. :D The Buddy built hot rod. Lawless in Vegas, Salgado at Pomona. Title: Re: Lets see those Red Cal Lookers.

Title: Re: Lets see those Red Cal Lookers. Post by: Sarge on August 01, 2009, 21:50:22 pm I donno, there's lots of ANTI-Cal-Look chrome on that thing..... Glenn could change that up by doing the bumpers, headlight rings and turn signal covers up in red (leave the rubber deco strips on the bumpers) and by doing the trim in black semi-gloss powder coat. Just 'cause it's a Fatty doesn't mean it can't be Cal Look, too. It's fun to be different... 8) ....."I'm planning on a set of BF Goodrich G-Force 195/55-15 front and 205/60-15 rear."

Top pic is stock width beam, rear at stock setting, but slightly higher due to some weight removal. Second pic is narrowed and even more lowered beam and rear one notch down.

Title: Re: Lets see those Red Cal Lookers. Post by: Martin S. on April 08, 2016, 19:20:52 pm I bought this 80s style 68 years ago for a winter beater (winter boots are on it). It came with a black spray-painted interior, Farfenugen sticker across the top of the windshield and a Beastie Boys style VW chain necklace in the glove box!

A blast from the past. Such a cool car.

Post by: Good-Old-Ragtop60 on April 12, 2016, 07:37:38 am I really like this one.
Title: Re: Lets see those Red Cal Lookers. Post by: andrewlandon67 on April 12, 2016, 08:03:18 am Anyone have any shots of red lookers with polished/chrome Fuchs? I'm trying to decide if I want to go with Empi's Fuch-offs on my '67 or not, and the detailed ones just look goofy.

I'm personally more of a beetle guy, but this car, in all of its pink/raspberry red glory deserves at least a mention. The girl certainly isn't hurting anything either.

Post by: andrewlandon67 on March 08, 2017, 03:40:54 am I just love that entire second photo... that color, with those wheels, on that car, with the smog and the dystopian looking construction project in the background... it's just so perfect.
