No, that one's the 15 to the 10, but I'm impressed nonetheless.

Random:

In Pasadena last Sunday for lunch. BITD these "Cal Look" bugs where everywhere in So Cal - not anymore.

P.S. it sounded even better than it looked!

My first car was a 65 bug, got it when I was 15 for $50.
It has a fresh rebuild 1500 cc engine but the owner could never get it running right.
That's cause the cam timing was off a tooth or two when it was assembled.
It took me a couple weeks to nail it down, but for under $100 I had a driving bug with a rebuilt engine.
It ended up as a cal-look but with an 1835, dual 40 webers, and ran low 14's at the bug in.
back then it was common to ditch the bumpers completely and replace them with nerf bars (like the one in the pic, not my car), mostly because we couldn't afford straight bumpers.

it looked kinda like this with the trim delete and one piece door windows but mine had centerlines and was painted ford grabber blue. Did it in ROP body-shop class in high school, first car I ever painted (regional occupational program).

Fella I met that lives in the 'hood had two Studebaker's. He sold one recently telling me he wanted to get a TR-something, wasn't sure which one. He found one back in December. He was out working on it today, I had my camera so took a few shots of it. If I remember correctly he told me it is a '70 TR-6.
