The Cal-look Lounge

what do you think about the american racing BAJA STAR wheels
can you imagine this wheels on a cal look ??? here's a photoshop of one wheels on my car , the color is not the right one for my car  , i know that lorenzo pearson had a set on the old drino miller buggy and david mayes had 6 wheels ,those are very rare nowadays

That can be nice with a better color, but without center caps.

no center caps is the brake drums nico  ;D

Yes ;D of course, I didn't think about that ! So it's looks good to me. Grey and polished rim. You have found a set ?

are they magnesium?

I hope you found a set of these,that looks very cool on your car :o
 

The Drino Miller car is the only one i have ever seen those wheels on - Very Cool wheels - Painted, edges polished, and center caps on.

I think they're killer.  I think I have a pic of one at the swap meet from Bug-In 32.  It's on the other computer, if I get a chance to look for it.

I like the Jackman Stars better for a street car....

I had a set for years, i will have to get the pictures scanned. I also have an add for them..

Never seen those kinda wheels before. 8)

Those are one of the nicest wheels I have ever seen.

Very rare and only come in 6" (although there is someone who narrowed a pair to 4 I believe, I'd have to look for the website)

yes  ;)

no very rare wheels , i never seen one in real  :'( :'(

These have been my all time favourite wheels for a LONG time - they would look PERFECT on my manx - if you find a set Fabs BUY THEM cos they would look cool on your ride too  :)

supercool wheels. I Like Walker wheels as well.

I am not sure if you all know that David Mayes died a month or 2 ago. There is a thread on the samba, but his website is still running, he was a really cool guy who loved his vws, and his website is a goldmine of information.

Si.

 :o :o :o OH MY GOD  :o :o :o I have been or was an internet friend of daves for years and finally met him at the last Bad Camberg - He was such a friendly guy  :'( :'( :'( he was a REAL collector  :'(

Mate, that was mine and a lot of other people reaction it is real sad news, I have been doing deals or cross checking things with David for years. I think more information is on the split bus thread on the samba - leave a message.

I just found out last week, very sad news indeed :'(

I bothered him with many questions when I found my GTV, and badgered him to sell me an EMPI exhaust to no avail! I never met the guy, but he will be missed.
