The Cal-look Lounge

hi guys,
i still havent posted any pics of my car, so i thaught i could give it a try.. :)
its a 64 swedish import, that i got since 2002..
its looks kinda shabby (some football supporters thaught it would be cool to run over my car,with a wavy roof as a result; another guy that ran into me etc..), but i m looking it at the bright side and think this might be an element of surprise for the honda friends :)
do you guys what kind of steering wheel i have? i bought it in budel this year; hornbutton is with a wolfsburg logo and on one of the spokes i can read "italy"
i also have 2 autometer gauges, but i m in a dilemma: place them on the left side of my steering column or under the glovebox..
what do you think?
for wheels i d like to have erco's at the back
engine is a type 4 with upright cooling and megasquirted;, but i will hopefully soon throw it out and make place for a nice 2276 ;D

when i start building it i ll post some pics of the buildup

cheers, Peter

some  more...
i think i should make some more in daylight :)
you dont see much on these ;
but there is a euro bug in sticker :)

cheers

another belgian guy

welcome!

hey peter, welcome to the lounge.

That's one though ride you've got,
Keep us posted about that 2276cc engine you're building , those wedge ports heads sound promising, cant wait to see it finished.

Nice car.
It have a used look, and I love that!

Cheers,
Sander

sweet ride....kinda reminds me of my very own '61, when it sported fivespokes and bumpers. great stance dude

thanks a lot guys!
that means so much to me!
so where would you place the autometers?
and whats that steering wheel?

greetz, Peter

i know where these wheels came from :-)

really? :):)

Nice car - looks hard!
I`d fit the gauges in the l/h speaker grill, only MHO though!
 ;)

hi guys,
i changed my dash yesterday...
i finally made up my mind and installed them autometers under the glove box...
I still have to mount the head temp gauge, so i left some room to make a three in a row :)
i also replaced the broken centercap that was thrashed in the accident..shiney :)
can u spot something else i did? :)

greetz, Peter

i forgot the pics :)

my cal look stomper  ;D

hey peter -- you finally cleaned up the interior  ;) -- can you take a close-up pic of that horn ring you put on? thanx

after a long time of stuff flyin around i thought it was time i did a little cleanup
the hornbutton was with the steering wheel, i just changed it a bit , will take a pic soon

Cooooooool

We should all have one !

Enjoy

I think I know your Wheels... ;) ;D ;D ;D

Frank

i like em
and i hope to give them a good workout like you did :)

Hey cool you are running a typ 4 engine with upright cooling....what is it a 1.7/1.8 or 2.0 engine?
I am currently building 2.0 typ4 with upright cooling for in my looker...
But why do you want to throw yours out?

Kind regards Edgar

hi edgar,
i m just another victim of the cal look doctrine and just need a type one :)
another reason to go to type one again is because there is so much more' literature about type 1's, more choice of parts, and much more people that made good combos;
i want to build something that goes hard, but no exotic combo and fairly common

cheers, Peter

That would make my Day... ;) ;D ;D ;D

Frank

according to the fuel guage it looks like you filled 'er up with some gas as well ;) Nice work on a hard car!

thanks dude!!

some more pics...

more...

more...

hey ruff! -so that's your car - i thought about something else as you told me 'bout the guys that ran across it -looks good -but why did you change the wheels?

Hello Olaf!!!
It was time for a change  ;D
the sprints look cool i think

cheers
