I will be in Laguna Beach, CA mid April for my wife's company work trip. I see that OC Cars & Coffee is 15 minutes away from where I will be staying. I'm thinking of going to check it out. Does anyone here go? If so, do you have any advice for me? What is the best time to get there?

Thanks in advance,

Marty

Oh Boy, you're in for a treat; check this resource out - there's always lots going on around here. If you're into Fords, there's a big one in Anaheim and of course, the famous Pomona Swap...

Have fun!

ps - haven't been to C&C for years, but as I recall, most are already rolling out / leaving by 08:00 or 09:00. Get there early, like 06:00 to see everything (and hear them all) was my experience years ago... most will likely be exotics at that one there.

Thank you both for the responses. It certainly doesn't look like I will have a difficult time finding something to go check out. The link provided is great. I wish the schedule allowed me to see Pomona as that is the weekend I will be there.

If you happen to think of anything else between now and then please send it my way.:youguysrock::youguysrock:

Thanks again,

Marty

X2....I never miss Donut Derelics when I go to SoCal. You never know what you'll see, but I about guarantee you'll see something really cool.

Great shows mentioned. From Laguna Beach, you will be really close to another Cars & Coffee in San Clemente at the Outlet Mall - Hermosa exit on the "5" Freeway. Cars arrive at 8:30am. Ends at 11am. HUGE turnout every Saturday morning. Mark

Mark,
That is actually the Cars& Coffee I was referring too. From what I see on the internet it looks like a good turnout.

tjs44,
How many cars show up at DD? Does it last longer that 7:30ish?

Thanks,
Marty

Marty, Great show. Over 200 every Saturday. You see a little of everything there. Model A's to brand new Lambo's. Cars cannot come on the lot until 8:30am. Show ends at 11am. Used to be earlier but got pushed for noise. A lot of shops right there and great restaurants. Well managed. Not to be missed. Look me up. Will either be in a Classic Copper 71 Z or 69 Black L78 Nova. Mark

I agree with everyone about Donut Derelicts!! It's quite a "show"! Starts early (like 5:30!!) and goes until 8:30 or so. The OC Cars and Coffee you're referring to is probably the one in San Clemente. Not a bad "cruise in" but definitely has more new and exotic machines. If I'm not still in the middle of a major remodel at our home I'd be up to meeting you at either location!!

If your not driving a car to DD you dont need to get there at O dark 30.I get there at 6 and usually leave about 7:30 but many wait and come a little later when some parking spots start opening up.There is parking across both streets for people just coming to walk the deal.Tom

I have decided that I'm going to go to the OC Cars & Coffee at The Outlets in San Clemente. Hopefully I can get an Uber early in the morning and make it over there. It's only 6 miles from our hotel and seems the easiest for me to go and enjoy. If anyone is going please let me know.

Thanks,

Marty
