Ah! Newport Beach. Always wanted to be able to afford to live there. Didn't necessarily want to live there, just wanted to be able to afford to. --- On Mon, 8/17/09, w.wood <evil.scientist.boo@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: w.wood <evil.scientist.boo@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [tcb] Re: Cali trip report.

Early Westy side windows with a seat of Wolfgang Safaris on it. Primer Red but at least it had the right bumpers on it...

To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Monday, August 17, 2009, 11:49 AM Outside of Germany it always has been. I should warn you Sammie, most of the splits were lowered. I saw a 59 that looks to have once been a Westy running 195/45s all around. It was funny to watch the guy and his girlfriend bouncing up and down. I'm surprised however that during previous trips out there I hadn't seen many earlies but they were there. I guess gas prices drove them back out of hiding. That and a lot of super beetles.. No rabbits though or 80s metal for that matter other than a couple of Vanagons.
