Just had a meeting with my book publisher on Thursday and, among three titles we discussed, one is.... the follow up to 'California Look VWs'! At last! Got to have another meeting to discuss matters further but it looks good. Maybe I should give you the publisher's e-mail address so you can all write to him...  Grin

Wish me luck... fingers crossed and all that.

yeah I only have three autographs in my copy of Keith's book.  I have Keith's, Gene Berg's and Dean Lowry's.  I guess I should photograph them, huh?  I do think this is really cool.  I can't wait for the new book!

I know a lot of people (me included) call the first book the Cal Look Bible - does that make the new book the New Testament? Cheesy
