henk!!!

Well, I was in doubt between some of the featured cars.

The Underdog is one of the coolest cars to come out the last year, but be honest, it is nothing but an orange car  ;D The Flakey Jake is very nice too, but maybe a bit over the top and missing the class of the underdog. Peaches & Scream, cool heritage, but not a new car in any way. The Gianni built rod is cool, be honest about it, we all like it, but this is the Lounge and you need to know where to set priorities. Then I'd rather vote for the Kid Volksrod, dressed witht he same sauce, but so much cooler because of its size.The porsches, well they are jsut Porsches as the busses are busses, they get you and your kit from A to B. The rest of the lot has it's pro's and cons as well, none of them is ugly (except maybe the Yellow Fever one  ::))

Brian Plummers car is awesome, the car oozes cal look. It has got it all in favour, the color, the stance, the wheels, the engine and the detail it is all built with. I would loose the bumpers, but hey that's easily changable in 5 minutes so doesn't count.

And still, if I had to choose I'd probably drive the underdog.  8) So if you win by 1 vote, that will have been mine and you owe me a ride

Number 4 does it for me.  8)

Full list: http://www.ultravw.com/mepasite/339/Car_of_the_year_%2708.aspx

number 4 and 18 for me.lots of nice details on both cars.if pushed probably brians car for the win ;D

Im not worried about the others, only wanting a vote for the New Dog, please its not about winning its about taking part !!!! NOT.  ;D

anyway cheers

It's my pleasure Russell,you have my vote for "UNDERDOG" 
   ;)

A lot of nice cars, but my vote is done for Underdog.

If orange isn't your colour, number 25 could do with a few votes!  :-[

to me, getting featured in a magazine would seem enough kudos already...  ;)

thats a lovely car dom ;) i didnt get that issue.i may have to scrounge one and have a peek :)

ALL THE CAR'S ARE GREAT! BUT I HAVE TO GO WITH # 18  ;D ;D ;D

THANKS FOR THE NICE COMPLIMENTS GUY'S! ;D

Thanks Tim.. :)

who was on top of the mountain last year?

Dare I say..Darren Dilleys 55, Geoff Petersons HebRod the year before..let's make it a Canadian hat trick.. :D

Hi,

All great cars on their own merits! But for me it's down to nr4 or nr18... stunning cars!! :o

nr12 gets A+ for effort, attitude and craftmanship... and the build-up story is great reading (on thesamba).  8)

Congrats to all featured cars, that is an accomplishment all in all.

cheers,

Voted 8)

No 4 gets my vote! Stance, details, horsepower... it's all there, Cal Look at its best.

4 is nice, but 18 gets mine...  8)

Well in my opinion (only mine) it would be easy to vote for a "theme" built car with U.S. notoriety (#19).....But how can you go wrong with a car built with great craftsmanship, thought and a newer Cal-Look stace that was built in the heart of it all....O.C. California. Chalk one up for #18. ;D

I'm backing my boy Raul Fernandez [#10] and his Mango '57. He's a fellow club member and this car is sweet!

It's got alot of one-off hand crafted details.

I love the mango green and red interior combo.  8)

Yea, he used the seats out of a 356, recovered them as well as the rear seat and door panels in oxblood leather. It turned out fantastic. Like I said, alot of little details that really make the car. It feels like the folks that originally designed the interior for a 356 did it for this '57. At first glance you see a very nice car, but when you look closer you see the quality in the details.


So if you are on the fence, vote Raul Fernandez, the #10 car

-jeffrey

WTF??? This is how you guys win????? Everyone knows it's all about #6 ;D

Its not fair I post a post for help and i get the stupid Northern (wanabe) Americans Hi Jacking it.......

Lanny, Geoff go away this is for proper cal look people....... not morons  ;D

Some pictures of the girls in action will follow tomorrow........ ha,ha

So many lovely lookers there! What to choose..... ;)

Hadn't realised they put my Google maps on their website too  :o

voted for my DKK boy, brian plummer

Underdog ROCKS, vote cast...

Hey you US & Canadian guys, go get your own thread if you want to drum up some votes :D :D :D

I think he is referring to the fine folks (north of the Yanks) as in Canada. Which if so, I now feel insulted Eh!  :-\  ;D

What! You're not a real Americano? Wow, you're almost one of us!:D

Nevermind the cars (and potato haulers), today is yesterdays tommorrow so where are the pictures of girls in action Russel >:( :D

;D ;D  :-\ ::) ;D

FWIW, if it wasn't for us yanks [specially us Californicators], there wouldn't be no Cal-Look Lounge. You all would probably be sitting around customizing 2CV's or <gasp> Mini's!  ;)

-jeffrey

If you shaved those turn signals, I'd vote for you  ::)  :-*  ;D

Now you're talking! :D

#24  ;)

I was talking about the Mounties not the Americans !

#18!!!!!!!
  a true classic......67 and shows  everyone what started this whole craze...
a simple clean fast ride!

 

A different track now, see below  ;D

So if they win you can see they were feeding KS with drink, nothing to do with the quality of there cars.

then they did this !!!

and finally they decided to cling film themselves........ not your average VW guy ! So please dont vote for them, thanks

That day/night was too funny!

Damned Canooks. ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D

What a great night!
Don't be jelouse Russel, If I make it to EBI I'll be sure to give some "special" Cling wrap attention to your home ;D (wouldn't think of touching your vw's).....but if I see you driving another PT Cruiser with Gay Porn stickers watch out!

That's my 'I've got gas' look...

I hope you both make it to EBI, we need someone to poke fun at, good luck to you both in the Ultra car of the year.

Hat trick.... ;) ;) Keith...Rolling Rocks on me this June.. :D

Cool Lanny! 8)

OK how did you do it 3 in a row.... its not fair, are you giving keith a back hander ?

Anyway, well done and well deserved truly awesome car, but as suggested in Ultra COME ON the rest of us lets stop the rot.....


FYI, Ultra VW sales in Canada in now the second most popular magazine right after "if you cant win fairly, CHEAT"  ;D

PS: hope you have a beer for me too in June and what about the pics of your next project ?

 New project pix will appear once the 67 is sold.. ;) How about 120 MPH+ in the 1/4 with the AC on.. 8)

The Yanks are all north of the Mason-dixon line.All the real Rebels & outcasts  lay south and to the East coast.

Just your average Canadian grocery getter.

Throw in a night out with Geoffy baby  :-* and we'll make it four! ;D

Hey the only reason people live north of that line is because our jobs are up here!   :D
