These are all good! My favorite is the Samba, but those bays turned out really nice!

Do you have the before and after for this one? I remember it being pretty cool how you had to move the lady around to make up for the lower car position, exactly how cage66 had to move the guy's leg who is sitting in that bus taking a picture. |
sexy Helga!

I also like how you smoothed out the dent in the front fender.
Nice.

faded colour of the fuchs is clever too
i agree, the old pics with people work really well
come on guys, work your magic... i think these would work well..take your pick...these need Fuchs...(or BRMs...or Sprints...or Cosmics...)
or maybe reduce a split or a dlx here
one of the No Window BDs at the back is asking for treatment
that bus on the right needs sorting!
last few are from

Thats pretty good. i started doing that one before the last, but gave up.  I also used the pointing guys head to add on the other.
Its tough lowering cars when there is a lot of stuff going on in the background/foreground that you dont want to look cropped |

the grey sunroof standard beetle, nice. i guess personally i prefer to see p/shopping onto alloys rather than stocks (too resto-cal). the front tyres look too big (ie 165s). (Sorry!)
i'd like to see it given a classic purposeful Cal Look stance, muscle car style. Stock at rear, slightly raked (ie still slightly high at the front)
like this
let me know if anyone would like good pics to rob the wheels from. not sure what you use? but i could dig some out - different angles. og rims:
