Los Angeles ~ Peterson Automotive Museum Car Show & Symposium

10:16 AM PDT on April 24, 2008

Saturday I headed to the Peterson Automotive Museum for a car show and symposium. Because of the traffic in Los Angeles (even on the weekend) I missed the symposium but made the show and hop. Big Fern, Mister Cartoon and the DeAlbas were on hand with cars and also participated in the symposium.

Mister Cartoon's latest addition to his stable of cars. I believe its a 39 Dodge.

Elite Car Club

Sal from SA Studios and his girl.

Individuals Car Club came out and did a hopping demo along with Kool Aid Hydros. There was some breakage.

These days a show always includes the two wheel riders.

Mister Cartoon's Heritage

Old Memories had a strong showing.

Tradition Car Club was showing strong.

A few more shots from the show.

There are more photos on my Flickr page.
