Yes and no.... Technically, back in that period of time, the February 1975 issue was produced during the months of November-December 1974, and went on-sale in January 1975. But I like your idea.... I can't tell you how many people want to find the exact spot that the famous February 1975 cover was shot by Jere Alhadeff. The city of Costa Mesa should place a historical land mark on that spot!

You can Google it at:   2965 Mendoza Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 (I don't have the GPS numbers, sorry)

We went there last year right after The Classic. You can literally see our friend Greg's house from where the picture was taken. We've been crashing at his place when we go to VW events for a few years now, we never knew it was so close! Naturally, we had to recreate the event Smiley

Haha... I kinda figured as much tbh Deano... knowing when I've had to get info to one or another of the magazines... its always needed way in advance Smiley

If there was ever something to celebrate, for me, this is it, a huge part of my life (don't know if thats a sad thing, but hey ho).

Greg happened to have a tape measure in his 63, we would have put AssHull's '67 here, but the Honda was in the way Roll Eyes Made for a fun picture anyway! Cheesy
