I remember first seeing Chris Jory's Oval around 1986 at a local,monthly Rod/custom meet (VW only meetings were still pretty rare back then,even in the Southend area).It was,up to then,the cleanest VW I had ever seen,one of the key cars that got me interested in Ovals and Cal look. Gary Constable was a family friend and I first saw his Fastback at my Sister's place around 86/87,it was one of the first VW's with graphic's I had seen. |

good to see that again haven't seen the constable for ages,what with him living in the states and all that, and with his eyesight he wouldn't see me either I got in trouble for selling his T-Shirts at school...very amusing when he rang my mum thinking I was up to no good, she just said 'nice aren't they,are they selling well?' |

Cool video. But I beg to differ regarding the part where it states that Fastbacks aren't (weren't) Cal Looked (modified) in America. We had, in my opinion, the best looking one in our club during 1980/'81. It was completely dechromed, had perfect stance, one of the BEST black paint jobs ever, and a set of Fuchs 911 alloy wheels. I forgot what he had for an engine. Saw it out on Whittier Blvd. every weekend. There a few others out there, but the black one still remains my favorite one to this day.
Sorry for the thread derailment, just wanted to clarify something. If was air cooled and VW, it was Cal Looked in So Cal. Perhaps not as popular as the Bug, but there were no rules.

Hey Fred, go easy on me! It was a long time ago and all we had to go on was what we saw in Hot VWs (when we could get it) and VW Trends (which I hated).  We need PHOTOS! |
