Thanks -- -- I keep trying to make it a little better all the time -- -- Was it the DKP event in Garden Grove????

Have been in the middle of moving the shifter to on top of the tunnel and getting ready to do a change over from Electromotive to AEM EFI and was going to document my adventures ,,,,, BUT.. .. .. can't seem to get any of the admin guys attention -- --

here's a peek at the engine in the ghia

Thats right the DKP event at Garden Grove, I fell in love with your car, it stood out in a sea of Cal Look, its pretty serious, 3 litre from memory or two 1500 Beetles, your running some serious HP.

Thank you for the kind words Steve -- -- Yes, I don't get to much love at the Cal-Look events, even though I've known most of the guys for 40+ years -- -- I remember teasing a couple of guys about giving me a sympathy vote for best cal-look award there LOL -- -- That would Never happen --

Yes, it is a 2989 plus boost -- I've been doing some SOLO events over here with the SCCA and really enjoying racing around the cones -- Last time out showed that I needed a LSD and some sticker tires -- spent the big bucks on redoing the 091 with some taller gears and adding the LSD -- now just need some stickier/wider tires.

This car is so cherry, that I can't bring myself to cut the wheel wells and put some flares onto it,, maybe some torsion cutting and moving in is in my future LOL,,, It never ends......

Hey, did my Fiat qualify for a German look car????

My old '56 Oval is for sale -- Ovalholio -- Looks like the disc brakes let him down

Such a pity! Still a big sum for a wrecked oval or is the market like that over there?

It is a totally rust free car -- -- I think it is a pretty fair price, IF you have the parts to fix it -- It has disc brakes on four wheels and tons of upgrades to the suspension when I had it as my race car -- It made the kid a very nice daily driver -- Shoot the Rossi headlights that were in it are worth some serious coin
