What a great looking 66! You're doing a nice job on the car.

I've seen more cars that were as low as your's on this forum without complaints, so don't bother. I think it looks nice  |

Charlie, the license plate frame is great! Also, it's refreshing to see body coded fender beading. Don't worry about posting pics of your car. It's much more fitting to see a Cal Look VW image on the Cal Look forum. Keep up the good work. You still have the '66 convertible, yes?

It is a hair too low in the back for traditional cal look, but it still looks great.
I know what you mean. I knew that would be the consensus on the rear but now i like it and it's just goin have to do. I really want to keep the car traditional cal look but it's fine like it is and it's just my daily driver. I'm not trying to get in a car club or anything. I'll probably upset the majority in here if i keep posting pictures of it but here goes anyway... (BTW new exhaust coming soon)(Big motor??)  Looks good man! Keep posting  What size are those meats, look huge from this angle - 215s?? - Drop spindles? 2" beam? |

Man! You folks have some great lookin' cars!
Here's mine . . .

I would like to have it another inch or so lower in front, but the adjusters are already maxed. On the plus side, nothing rubs . . . EVER!

Thanks Rick! Those stickers are the ones I had for my '67 and of course, they never went on it. They have been on my Ghia for over fifteen years now! |

Chris, great to see your car again. I dig the factory look of it all. The black exhaust is perfect, too. One mean lookin' car that means business.

Chuck, The new car is looking good!
Funny thing was, I ran across some old photos today of you and the green car waiting in the staging lanes with Troy at Vegas. I have to ask, how RED was that light in your run with Troy? If it was green, then you sure strapped a hole shot on him with a major wheelie, LOL. Fun times.

Mark, I was actually quite disappointed that the rear buggy bar didn't fit anymore with the new dual QP mufflers. But thank you! |
