Shelby Legendary Cars
Cruise-In at Peterson Museum - Jan 27
Anyone planning to make a showing at this event?
I think the 2 new Bondurant Tribute cars that debuted Barrett Jackson will be in attendance.
I plan on attending. Would like to see a few familiar names and cars attending.
Hoping the weather is good there, better than snow in Chicago.

I have been planning on it. I heard this morning that the winds are returning this weekend.

Ok, "the winds"..... I'm from Chicago. Here "the winds" refers to our local politicians speaking pubically.... usually about something they deemed good for the general population like Red Light cameras, or increased property taxes. Should I be concerned? Chicago is the "Windy City"... think your winds stack up to ours? Ha ha ha ... hoping the weather is favorable..

My lovely child bride and I will be in attendance. Also going to make the Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona that weekend.

Hey Blas,

Winds for us are the "Santa Ana's". Very dry and strong depending on where you are. 20-35 mph sustained are common with gusts at 40-50 are typical.
The down slopes and some canyon areas can see 80+ mph.
brush Fires become a big deal fast.

Not loving the date change.
Sunday (and earlier) would have been so much better.
Driving through LA mid morning on a Sat?
No thanks.

[Blas]

Thanks....... We will also be doing both those events Friday and Saturday....

Friday Night at Bobs Big Boy in Toluca Lake is cool as well. Anthony (Boosalis) Usually brings at least one of his Original Comp cars.

I have tried to make Bob's Big Boy my last three trips out west but either the weather or something else always prevented a visit....
George Barris's shop is another place that also seems to get bumped each time I visit. I have done SO-CAL, NHRA Museum, Riverside Raceway Museum, MOON Equipment, and a couple other custom car joints I had stumbled across while out there. Also did Cars and Coffee once
Would like to do Lynn Parks garage, McCluskey's shop, and AAR but under the circumstances, decided against visiting AAR this trip. Always open to suggestions.... thanks.

As a first timer to this event, I must say I was impressed. A great cross- section of Shelby cars were in attendance. Had a chance to talk with Lynn Park and a few other owners of original cars. Was a beautiful day, and the sun was shining.... no wind as was previously mentioned.
Shelby Legendary Cars had one of the two Bondurant Tribute Cobra’s there so I was able to get the remaining photos I needed for that Tribute Owner’s Manual.
The Bondurant Tribute Coupe was also there to enjoy. Great day.

Enjoyed the event. Unfortunately one of our guys spun his Cobra on the way up there and did significant damage due to kissing a guard rail

I won a magnum of champaign for my #8 Cobra people choice award.

[Blas]

Yes, I saw his car with the damage..... right front and windshield. No injuries hopefully.

Any details on what appears to be a chopped down rag top? It looks way better than my goofy-hat rag top!
