I'm restoring a '63 sedan but it will not be bone stock (1600 engine, carb(s), and exhaust) I'm trying to figure out what "look" I'm "looking for" :lol: Would somebody give me the specs on just what are the differences between the "Cal look" and the "German look" and the " Euro look" I've got some ideas but I'm just not sure. I really don't want a hybrid look (except for the engine) :twisted:

Here are some basic guidelines-
Cal-Look: Removing all chrome trim & bumpers. Lowered front ends with large capacity motor.
German-Look: Type IV powerplant, large disc brakes & 17" Alloy wheels. Lowered 2-3" all around
Euro-Look: Semaphores, Euro-style bumpers, Amber/Red taillight lenses
But don't forget the latest craze, Resto-Cal. Basically keeping the bodywork of your car completely stock and usually an original color. Lowered front & back with lots of period accessories |

Resto- cal sounds like just the ticket, with a euro flavor.
