Welcome to the Real Cal-Look Lounge!!! Frank Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: Casey on January 09, 2008, 16:38:03 pm Clean rig. I thought I could smell the good fuel on the Christmas cruise! Hey.....so whats the deal on the carpet and headliner. Are you runnin' it that way for weight? Or a certain look?If so, how much do you think you saved? Your engine bay is all business. I like it. Later.
Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: Sarge on January 09, 2008, 17:03:12 pm Welcome to the Lounge, Jason and Danny ( a cool surprise to see you here, Danny!). Your car is looking great in those pics, Jason! I'm glad to see you both here...this place is the best. ;) 8) ;D
Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: Jim Ratto on January 09, 2008, 17:32:26 pm Welcome Jason, you're a nice guy, met you @ Nicks a few months back. Hope to see you 'round more. That car is ultra-cool, and sounds really mean too. Didn't realize it was such a big stick under the decklid....cool job.
Let me elaborate on Sheep's bit.... every once in a while they undo the straps and let him roam around the institution. Seems like there must be a computer in the community area. Carlos (Carlita) is harmless, unless you're a dead bird. ;D Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: autobarnhauler on January 09, 2008, 19:04:20 pm hello, and welcome!, very very cool car, 8) 8) 8)

He is already telling you about the big stick... :-* Dead birds make the best pets !!! ;D Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: Jason Foster on January 09, 2008, 21:11:29 pm Clean rig. I thought I could smell the good fuel on the Christmas cruise! Hey.....so whats the deal on the carpet and headliner. Are you runnin' it that way for weight? Or a certain look?If so, how much do you think you saved? Your engine bay is all business. I like it. Later. Running the car no headliner no carpet just cause I think it looks clean and simple that way. The weight is nothing much I'm sure maybe 20, 30 lbs? just think it's clean and simple all business kinda the theme of the car. I may end up putting headliner and carpet later in the year or never not sure yet. Ratto Carlos Sheep ha ha ha looks like it can get fun here real quick ;D Thanks for all the great greetings and compliments it's nice to have a forum that is possitive to hang out in...... Jason Title: Re: Cal Look Lounge Introduction Post by: Jim Ratto on January 09, 2008, 21:23:07 pm fun is an understatement. Too bad you missed the afternoon of disaster up at my place back in October. Rainbow spectrum of vomit colors, unending beers, superheroes trying to fly down staircases, and all kinds of other monkey business going on in garage.... I don't think Sarge stopped laughing all day.
