50 Years of Volkswagen Beetle on the Cover

We featured a couple of nice Volkswagen Beetles on the cover of our February 2012 California Car Cover catalog. The February edition of our catalog was sent out to local customers and anyone who placed an order in January. In case you did not receive one in the mail, here are some extra pics of the VWs from the cover shoot.
Special thanks to John Schiess for bringing over his restored 1962 Volkswagen Beetle by our store. John is the owner of Custom Built Machines around the corner from us in Chatsworth, Ca. His shop has built a few vehicles featured on our catalog cover.
Need some floor mats for your classic car? Lloyd Mats new Classic Loop floor mat is designed with a nostalgic look of 60's automobiles. The mats are custom fit and look great inside the VW. You can get more details on these mats on our website.

New upholstery.
The 2012 Beetle Turbo belongs to local customer Bonnie Lewis. We were happy that she would let her baby out of her sight for a short period of time and let us photograph it.

The "Herbie" edition Beetle was built by John and the crew at Custom Built Machines. Special thanks goes out to the staff at B&E Customs for applying the paint.
People do not necessarily think of California Car Cover first when it comes to car covers or floor mats for their European car. But our shop can make car covers, seat covers, and floor mats for just about any European car on the road.

This is also a great time to mention that we just scheduled our first European Car Show at California Car Cover on Saturday, May 5th 2012. We had a lot of fun hosting Golden Shine detail days with local Audi, VW and Mini Cooper clubs last year. Now we will be hosting a car show open to all brands of European cars.

See our website or Facebook for the latest news and updates. We will post the details online as soon as we have them.

I was pretty excited for the 2013 Ford Flex unveiling. I drive one so I was looking forward to what was in store for 2013.
The 2013 Ford Flex looks the same on the exterior except for the revamped front grille and changes to the lift gate aluminum panel. The interior looks about the same, except for the updated center console with the Ford My Touch programming. You can view additional photos of the Ford Flex on my FordFlex.Net posting.
