Got them mocked up already! I'll have to make up some custom brackets to get them exactly where I want.


I think the boxes will be fine Wink,you not really going to fit them to the car are you Roll Eyes Cheesy

cheers richie

I absolutely am! A GTV is not a cal looker, and never will be. It is a "Grand Touring" car, therefore should have all the bells and whistles avaliable. Wink

Zach, I like those. I think they'll look cool. I used to run big 7" round Hella driving lights on my front bumper on my '67 because I drove the hell out of it (fast) at night. the little H4 Marchal's on my car were not up to the job. Now I am at home at night, doing other things, hence no more driving lights. I hate resto cal crap too, safety stars and all the deflectors and that crap... but better lighting is a good thing. And they fit the lines of your car. Nice.

oh and ian c....  you are one crazy mother.   Grin cool cat.

In the seventies, we used to say a GTV was Cal Look.....

Were Mullets considered Cal-look too?

Yup, all present and correct! Big mistake ordering the red TMI interior though - it looks so good against the Anthracite paint that I don't want to sell the car any more! Cheesy

allright i got some stuff as well...

- got another copy off the great how to hodrod your vw engine book (too bad it is the same cover as the one i got) but that book is so cool. so now i have one that can get dirty in the garage.
- a very nice set off 185/70/15 vredestein tires for the type3 and it even looks like everything fits and no short axles are needed... that is good. so i am one step closer to the ulitmate dream off turing this car into the green machine  Grin Grin Grin Wink

SKAT TRAKs! Finally found what look to be a decent set thanks to DHood. They have been mildly ported but I think they are still okay. I am sure if UD can make an entire head out of aluminum welding rod, reworking these should be no problem for him.  Grin



edit: forgot the stupid picture first time. And sorry for the lousy phone camera pic.
