this car has been around for an eternity with the same owner.its got a few mods from back in the day that not many people do now.louvres in the decklid,pinstriping and buggybar bumpers to name a few. the motor is still the trusty 1776 with dcnfs i think? the black paint still looks like glass even today.any pics or info on this one?

There are pic's from that car in"The CALIFORNIA LOOK" book from Stephan Szantai.
(in fact all DKP cars are featured in that book)
I bought that book last week at a swapmeet by Gunter(CSP)

Great question, regarding pics of Dave's car. I met him way back when he first built that car through my friend, Jim. When I was having Tiger (A-1) making my exhaust system, last year, Dave's car was in Tiger's shop. It was great being able to check it out from below for a couple of days. Brought back a lotta good memories of how the cars used to be done.

Sadly, I didn't think to take my camera outta my wagon and take a few pics. I regret that now. D'OH!

HAHA!! I know, I know... but remember, I was also trying to get my car done for D.K.P.'s Cruise Night right before Bug-In 33. And I only had 13 days to do it. It was a tired stocker and I was on a mission. Didn't have time for pics.

Back on topic: thanks for postin' the pics, Fabian. I figured that you'd come through with the goods. Well done, my friend.
