Well, Can we get directions, or maybe get it closer to the beach. Like Huntington. Anyway, I am interested. Fridays are cool.


There is this donout shop next to my house and every sat moring there is a gathering of around 40 cars every type and year. It would be fun to show up there one morning and cruise PCH to Main street. But I bet no one has a clue where I am talking about because, I have yet to see anyone withing 30 miles of where I live.

And to keep it tech....soda cans?

Cruisers is at the railroad tracks. I guess it's Tampa.
It's a cool place, BUT
Bob's Big Boy in Burbank is UNBELIEVABLE.
I've seen the Batmobile (George Barris's personal one) in there. I've seen cars, I built as models, back in the 70's there (a Tom Daniels design).
I've seen a 1970 Dodge Dart Convertible, with a 440 and aluminum heads, there. And my personal favorite, a guy named George, he owns a MINT beautiful, 1955 Red Corvette V-8 (the first year of the V-8 Corvettes), stock, show winner, that he actually drives! We had a Red 1954 Corvette, with a V-8 and I have a Red 1974, now, so it's always a treat to see the original.
I've met Robert Williams there, often.

Cruisers has much more parking room, tho. I've seen rock and roll bands there performing at nightime. I usually visit both, as they are so close. But, then I've done daily 100 mile round trips for work.
Tech point, I want to see anyones fresh air set up! I just got another coffee can air cleaner lid, so I can butcher one. Paid $2 for it at the yard, yesterday.

But, I vote for meeting at Bob's. I'd be coming in from Sherman Oaks. OR I'll hit Bob's then go to Cruisers, later.
Bob's is the best cruise show. Unless that Gasser ****** pulls into Cruisers, again!

I know of the doughnut shop in HB.
Used to be able to cruise Van Nuys, race, then hit Redondo and cruise along where Red Onion used to be. Then hit Hollywood Blvd, on the way back home.
How pleasant it was.
Now, it's all bench racing.
Nothing tho, like shutting up someones big trap, by proving it on the streets - THEN - not now.
That part sucks, street racing is so stupid & unsafe now.
