Cool pictures, Sarge!! They really make me want to drive my car, but the weather has been quite damp here in the bay area. I can look forward to killer snowboarding though.

Cars & Coffee pics are awesome, too! The cross ram Hemi made my pants a little tight. You guys out in Cali have the definite advantage of access to the big dollar stuff for sure!

Sarge gave me a hard time yesterday, since I didn't bring my camera...
So I brought it today - actually my wife Tania's lil' Canon.
Some pics from Nick's: An ex-Swedish post office Type 3 Panel (how rare!?); Jim Kurlinski's "other car"; Steve Beecher's "other car" (note slicks!); cool '51 (?) Split.
Like yesterday, the weather was perfect. Temp in the mid-70s (25C).

Wow! What a hoot!! I had a blast making noise all over Orange County Saturday with you guys. Hey... How about we start doing it more often Thanks Sarge for the pics since I forgot my camera once again. I was gonna snap a few shots from the trusty phone cam on the highway, but as soon as I got it ready to shoot Schwimmer called to thanks us for wake-up call as we drove by his house on the way out of town! Sorry we missed you Jason! Thanks for the CNC pics! Diggin' the "street legal" Porsche Thanks Stephan for letting the cat out of the bag  The peer pressure finally got to me!! Now I just gotta get 'em dialed in

Thats about the coolest pic I've seen of a cal looker. Love to see them out on the streets, always seem miles cooler than static shots.
Nice pics! looks like you had a great day guys.

Now I just gotta get 'em dialed in Nice looking motor Dustn! How's it run? Man, Saturday was fun. That's a different way of life down in Laguna and Newport, huh? Beautiful scenery to cruise through. Not sure how much the locals dug the 48IDA's growling and puking fumes down their pretty streets. Nice stop for learly lunch too... cannot wait to do more drives like this fast VW's are meant to be driven. later guys, Jim |

Thanks for all the compliments, guys. Being out cruising around surrounded by cool cars makes picture taking a blast. I put a few more pics of Henry's rig on the Cal-Look 65-66 bug thread... check it out!

It is so great to see you guys out cruzing your Bugs and visiting others. The photos are so good because they make us all want to take out their cars. Ratto is such a good Boy Scout he is always prepared. This just makes me want head out for a drive again down to So Cal for a visit with my black 67. To think Ratto was going to sell his 67 when he moved down there, thanks to DKP he still is enjoying it may years later.
