Dave just scored a SWEET old '62 rag top to add to his fleet. How about the matching license plates? ![Cool](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/cool.gif) I asked Dave about why the front bumper was off the Pepco car and was informed that someone had biffed the front fender in a parking lot.... ![Sad](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Dave's double cab ALWAYS looks sweet!

John & Christie Lazenby's Imperial is a full mile long!
The Mangusta sounded awesome.

Very nice, Sarge. Thanks for sharing. That crew cab Type 2 is really cool. Also dig the '62 license plates and the Bob Bozzani frame.

Thanks, Mark! Well, I saved the best for last. As you can see, Bill is about to get a drive in a damn cool Nova. The car is out of Fullerton and the owner drove it to Dave's shop in Irwindale ![Shocked](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) This thing sounded way stout and, had the cops not been nearby, would have put on quite a show. Very period correct!

Big thank you to Dave, as always the best of events, grub, cars and friends. My son had a blast in the jumpy house and watching the Nova on pass. Sarge, thanks for pics and report. These are the kinda days that make a guy happy to be into old cars.

The Mangusta was a treat to see/hear. Very nice example, man could you hear how tall 1st gear was? Beautiful, so much better looking than its successor.

Great stuff Sarge. What a cool get together, judging by the pics now and last year. Did Lucas travel in dad's car? ![Cool](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/cool.gif) PS Beautiful, so much better looking than its successor.
Agree wholeheartedly. I got the chance to see one almost 10 years ago at an automotive design event featuring Guigaro's work. Lovely cars.

Lucas isn't allowed on the street in the '67 just yet...... and no my car still has bumpers hanging all over it. ![Grin](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Makes lots of sense given the traffic situation in your area. At least he was out making the scene. Rock on...

yah but I have a feeling VW bumpers are about as worthy as masking tape applied across the nose and rear apron 'round here. Lucas is all over the car scene, some of his favorite words are "Ferrari", "race car", "Alfa", "Ford"...not to mention he knows lyrics to about 4 Ramones songs as of yesterday.... "LoBOTOMY!" back to Dave's event... while cars and coffee and your various VW events bring out the usual stuff (you hit one of each every year, and you've seen "it all"), Dave's gatherings really bring out the off the wall, very interesting stuff that makes you widen your automotive interests. I'm not much of a Detroit iron guy, but seeing that Nova stomping gave me shivers. Bad Ass! Good to have Dave as my buddy.... we share the same bloodtype: 112 leaded. ![Cool](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Those heads were brainchild of Russ Arao back in early 1970's. I think I had a VOLKSWAGEN GREATS mag at one time that had the write up on them. Russ is still on Lassen St, just around the corner from my office, and still had a set on display last time I was in there. Somewhere I have pics of he rocker gear. ![Cool](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/cool.gif)
