Dale Beaman Prowler Junkie Posts: 2699 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: AUG 2002	posted 01-24-2005 11:01 AM I will be in Los Angeles for a couple of days and plan on going to the Peterson Museum. Now the question: What are other must see or do car related things? Thanks Dale
Larry Lord Prowler Junkie Posts: 3709 From: Colton, CA Registered: JUL 2000	posted 01-24-2005 12:10 PM Dale, Be sure to plan ahead and schedule a tour of the Nethercutt. It's much more impressive than the Petersen. Also be sure to let me know when you'll be in town. I should be able to get a few cars together for a short visit. ------------------ Larry (Cruise Control) Lord Larry@FMBbox.com Products for your Prowler and Trailer: Wonder Bar Stabilizer Bars - Upright Trailer Storage Stands - Deck Lid Hinge Protectors - Trailer Latch Reinforcement Kits - KatRack Stowable Cargo Carriers - Pro-Strap Velcro Tie Straps - Keyed Alike Chrome Coupler Locksets - Logo Caps - Chrome Receiver Locks - Chrome Coupler Locks FMB Prowler Products.
Dale Beaman Prowler Junkie Posts: 2699 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: AUG 2002	posted 01-28-2005 12:52 PM Larry, Thanks for the tip on the Nethercutt. Also is the Wally Parks Museum of Drag Racing at the Fairplex worth a visit? The other things we are planning on is a visit to Bob's Big Boy - suppose to be a big hang out on Frday nights according to Car Craft Mag. Is that true? Would that be a good place to meet up with you and some of the others? The other thing we would like to do is visit the BIG DOG Garage. Still open to any other suggestions.

Peterson is just across the street from the La Brea tar pits ... cool to visit as well. Head down to see West Coast Choppers while you are there, not far and a quick left turn gets you to the Queen Mary as well. Just some other non-car things to check out!

Howard Prowler Junkie Posts: 1749 From: Valencia, CA, USA Registered: JAN 2005	posted 01-28-2005 10:14 PM I suggest you take a trip to Disneyland. If you really like cars you can wait in line to ride Autopia. You will receive an official drivers license and the opportunity to drive a high speed race car. I think they go about 3 MPH. Howard

Dale Beaman Prowler Junkie Posts: 2699 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: AUG 2002	posted 02-03-2005 01:41 PM Any ideas for Friday & Saturday night? Racing, car show, hang outs, etc? Still wondering if Bob's Big Boy is worth it or not? The only thing that is in concrete is the Big Dog Garage on Friday afternoon. Will try for Derelict Donuts on Saturday morning and then Nethercutt and Peterson. Thanks Dale
Dead End Don Prowler Junkie Posts: 631 From: Palos Verdes, California USA Registered: AUG 2002	posted 02-03-2005 02:16 PM A Prowler cruise up Pacific Coast Highway should be on the list - no nicer way to spend a sunny cruise-worthy day. Also, NHRA Winternationals are coming up weekend after next at Pomona, so you can catch the NHRA Museum (it is awesome) and some the first racing of the new season. If you want to get together, leet me know.
Dale Beaman Prowler Junkie Posts: 2699 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: AUG 2002	posted 02-03-2005 03:03 PM Thanks Don, I will be in town this weekend. Planning on the NHRA Muesum on Saturday after Derlict Donuts. Dale
