KG 1957 lowlight

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 19:21:45 +0100

Very similar to my example, this vintage speed lowlight is nearly finished in France. Very nice color, engine and wheels combo. Hope to get mine on the road in a couple of years.

Le bug show

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 21:28:07 +0200

We went to Le Bug Show this weekend. The club was reduced as some of us were still on holiday, but Gino, Peter and I went for the weekend.

Peter took out his lovely Oval Convertable, now with painted sprintstarwheels. A top 20 award and a photoshoot for Super VW were the result.

Gino drove his panel van, witch is still for sale. If you are interested, drop me a mail on lowlight@telenet.be and I'll bring you in contact with the owner.

Ghia Steph's Dyno Pincher was used as the promocar on the flyer for this event. It raced on the track too...

Race-taxi bus had Porsche Turbo drivetrain and realy rocked on the track of the famous race-track Spa-Francorchamps.

I would have loved to take this one home, an early Ghia vert on sprintstars. I need help!!!

All the show and shine awards were these plastic beetles, pinstriped for the occasion. This one calls Opwijk-city home being won by Peter Bieseman...

European Bug In 3

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 14:10:03 +0200

Yes, we are back from this major Event, which was great again. Big thank you goes to all who have made this event to what it was. It's getting better every year and the weather was just fine this year with no rain and a lot of sunshine. To Fred, Mike and Kobus: Up to the next in 2011, it was large, guys...

Our Partyanimal Frank, does get competition from one of our own clubmembers. Kurt, you were large!

Peter did won Best Vert with his 1955 oval convertable. Miss Bug In, Monica, hands over the award...

DJ pete amused the crowd all weekend long.

Italian 1967 callook was awesome with sprintstars on Wide Oval Firestones on the back. It got the Best Callook award, well diserved.

Ivan Mc Cutcheon's 1967 Callook on real BRM's last already more then 15 years and still rocks today!!! I took her for a ride and that was an awesome experience!

Eric's 1966 Oldspeed was again very nice!

the flatline lowriders Callook set up...

Ex DKP 1967 from Doug Mitch now calls Ireland home in the Gasser Garage Collection of Russel Ritchie.

Nicolas' fastback is the best Callook Fastback I know. The color is so nice together with the gold genuine Empi 8 spokes.

Dokke was the only member of DFL who hit the track with good results, low 14 s on the 1/4 mile. Not bad for a 1776cc on IDA's.

GTV restaurations

Sun, 31 May 2009 17:53:15 +0200

Peter has put on my painted and detailled sprintstars, so the chromed ones can be saved for my lowlight :-). Looks pretty nice. Classic wheel on a classic car works always good.

VW RETRO DAYS in Zemst Belgium

Fri, 22 May 2009 21:56:41 +0200

This was a nice meeting, fine location, the weather was nice and the organisers were very friendly!!!

I took home this Callook award from the EBI crew. It is very nice to get an award after 12 years of restoration! Thanks guys.

Peter's 55 vert won two, but I have to wait for him to mail me his pictures :-)

As I didn't want to kiss Freddy, he brought his lovely wife Isabelle to give me the award.

Very, very, very, very cool early baywindow was treathed with a Porsche wheel and brake treathment by our clubmember Gino "Cote D'or" panel van!

BBT came with the always popular Laddertruck!

THis was a great show and with more than 140 cars for the first time, the show really was a succes! My son, Millo, won the drawing competition for kids and a new bike!!! What a day! I will not easily forget this one!!!

Ready for France

Getting ready to go to the Super VW in France. Always handy to bring some parts back home-)

My Callook bug almost ready for some action...

Sun, 10 May 2009 21:42:38 +0200

After 12 years of driving with an extremely lowered front beam on stock spindels, Peter Slambulance did a great job, lowering and narrowing the front of my beatle with lowered spindels so I can drive and enjoy it with comfort. Thanks my friend!

Bug In 34

Tue, 05 May 2009 22:38:56 +0200

While the weather is turning bad here in Belgium, in California, they had a good time during Bug In 34. The guys of EBI took the opportunity to promote their 3th edition in Juli 2009.

This car has been around for ages, and I like it since I first saw it more than 10 years ago on a picture of VW Trends. It's DKK's Fred 1967 callook bug.

After the Empi GTV steering wheels I restored in the past, I lay my hands on a set of Empi sprintstars. They look like new again and I hope the guy who will borrow these for a wile will be happy...

This 1303 vert on ATS wheels broke down just in front of my door. I dropped everything and went to help a hand. The guy was amased to hear a had a beetle too... We fixed it and he drove home. How cool is that?
