That was a time when nothing was already done and many possibilities remained...

It depends where you look Wink
Dave "Pip" Pipoly make some outstandings cars. They got innovative details.
 80's cal look style are not that common now. Most cal look are,in my opinion and my bug is also done this way, nicely restored bugs with lowered front and a hop up engine in the back ;-)

Rick, the first guy in the pic that you cant remember is Bob Davis.  I recruited him from my high school in Brea.  Great looking green 65 Rag top with polished centerlines.  After one of our car rallies we went behind the Nabisco building in Buena park and did our make shift drag strip late night fun.  On one of the many races that particular night Bob and I ran straight up.  I was pulling past him at 85 near the end at the railroad tracks and I look over at him to smile a winning smirk and and his car goes completely sideways!  Hes sliding sideways at 85+  Holy Sh*t!  He nips the railroad tracks embedded into the street and it whips him in a 360 and he winds up facing backwards.  Funny thing was,  the entire time he stayed in his own lane and never came close to me or anything else.  Boy were his eyes poking out of his head.... wow.

Another story from that night (if you dont mind)  Gary Berg was in his 12 sec blue street car with the first 5 speed anyone I knew had ever seen.  Gary is going to race this trailered Manx.  They are at the make shift starting line (again, behind Nabisco) and the Cops show up.  So Gene Berg sits in the passenger seat in Gary's car and basically waits for whats next.  Now, one of the cops was truly amazed at these presumably fast VW's.  Standing right next to the car the cop says to Gary with kind of a wink... "get this car outta here as fast as you can Mister"  Gene looks to Gary and nods, then Gary hits the gas, releases the line lock, the front end of the car shoots striaght up about 3 feet vertical, he spins the tires going into second gear, side swipes the clutch into third with some solid rubber noise, then into 4th and FINALLY, 5th gear!  He's looooong gone.... The Cop turns to us and says "FIVE?"  Yep, five gears man.  He's blown away and breathing hard, obviously not what he had expected.  He then threw his arms in the air and told everyione to "leave slowly!"  No arrests, no drama.  What a great night.
