EBI III - Cal Lookers and Racing Cars

2009 European Bug In III


First stop in arriving to Chimay was again set of frites with mayo and Hoegaarden in the Place du Leopold. Nice welcoming view too with the two Greenhearts cars :)


Another UK based Looker among the first cars spotted when we arrived.


Probably my favourite car of the cars that I hadn't seen before. I really like the lay-out of the car, olive green paint and Gas Burners.






Awesome car. I think I saw it first time 12 years ago when Bernie Newbury had just finished it, still love it.




Kurt's '67 Sunroof Standard leading the Flatline pack.




Doug Mische's old "Wocket" now belonging to Russel Ritchie's stable.




DAS pits.








I think I've seen this one before..






Must be getting old as the late cars seem to appeal.


There seems to be a Cal Look / Resto Cal momentum in Italy too based on what I've seen on some blogs and now handful of street cars in EBI.

EBI III - Ghias










Kai had returned from his world tour.









EBI III - Porsches




(Sebastian, stil disagree with you, custom wheels don't make the 356 look like a kit car! :)










Must have been quite an effort to create the hard top.

EBI III - Resto Cal Bugs













EBI III - Type IIs






Super clean Dutch Bay Window with 17" Fuchs.

EBI III - Type IIIs etc


Another year anohter great new DAS ride! Last year it was Roland with his late Looker, before that twins' Gobi Beige '62 and now Xavier's other Brazilia.


Crazy car and with the huge wheels it sort of looks like a model kit :)




Would have been cool to see Kerb Snake next to Xavier's Brazilia :)







Reminded me about old saying about flattery but gorgeous car.




Nicolas' Type III looking fresh as ever.
