[NEW]

Hello guys.

Going over to the USA, this fall.

Will land at LAX on 23rd of october, going back on the 7th. of november.

Will attend Sema show, towards the end of the trip.


I would be glad for any tip, on cruise ins, shows, stuff to attend, or just plain out cool stuff, and tips to look at. Museums, of muscle cars, muscle car showrooms, and so on.

Will be driving much during this 14 days, so any tips, and hints are appreciated. Will in California, NV, and possibly take a drive to Arizona,

thanks, Nils

If you come thru the Monterey Peninsula area why not take a Skip Barber class at the fabled Laguna Seca racetrack?...I did it 10 years ago and I had a blast. Heres a link to the track

Kassabians in Pleasanton is kinda on your way up to the Reno/Tahoe area. always 50 or so nice musclecars to check out.

there is also a beautiful Museum up in Danville, Ca. it's more of the 20's - 30's cars Ferarris...one of the finest museums I'd ever seen, art or auto.

these are all in the Bay area of Ca. should you be traveling up the coast.

I tried to edit the post to include the Goodguys show in Pleasanton...guess I messed up. they put on awesome shows and the Alameda Fairgrounds are a great venue for a show.

Depending on your schedule there is the Huntington Beach car show that starts about 5:30am every Saturday and the Irvine car show that comes together about 7:30am. Both gatherings are about an hour to an hour and a half south of LAX. There is also the Peterson museum in down town L.A. about a half hour north of LAX.

As mentioned, Donut Derelicts/HB and Cars & Coffee/Irvine Saturday AM ...

Bob's in Burbank Friday night's pretty good, too. VCR just off the 101 at Mulholland in Calabasas Sunday AM has a pretty good mix of stuff - last Sunday of the month is the largest gathering.
