Shelby GT 350's. All 3 types were present at Coronado

Full race version, even has stuff I've never seen before. If you look closely, you'll see that the rear window is the race style that bends into the cabin, instead of a linear curve from trunk to roof.
That it's got a license plate and current registration for legal road driving... means don't try to race it the next time you happen to meet up at the light.

Here's a dual quad 289, and a Hertz version. Cool.

I used to think these were rare. Stupid, they are just expensive and I never went to the rich neighborhoods were these occupy garages. Turns out, more GT 350's were made than Coronet R/T's.

VW microbuses were in force at Coronado

Woody's Chili Dogs, Saturday night ended right. Clairemont neighborhood cruisers hang out

Turn here, it's a right hand turn if you are heading West from the 805 or Genesee area of Clairemont. You can just make out a couple of rods there in the parking lot. This big 'ol signpost is a darn good landmark. Woody's is on the flip side of this bank building.

1970 build your own convertible GTX, from Virginia, (cool plates)

Of course Plymouth didn't make any, so this cool guy decided he was the right man for the job of adding one to the lexicon. Really, look at this, and tell me what was the brain trust at Mother Mopar thinking when they didn't do this? It's a no brainer for sure.

Just take and find one of the 700 or so ever made convertible Satellites (yeah, right... good luck finding one for sale) add the GTX grill and tail light parts. Put together a bitchin' 440, add some Lakewood bars if you like the look, shoe it with terrific looking Torque Thrust D's, put the GTX emblems behind the side scoops, and Bob's your uncle, (viola is so damn French, them buggers) you've got a damn fine looking and performing drop top.
Still a little course for some, but the owner said he's not looking to be worried about every scratch and ding, it's a machine for enjoying, not a trophy hunter. Rock on.

I just dig this view.

A M3A1 1941 Army scout car. Made by the White Motor Company

Hot Rod City ( in El Cajon) went out of business a couple years ago

This is in the showroom, of the now "East County Collision center". How a full race saturn ends up there, minus the drivetrain... no idea. Hot Rod City was a cool place to look around in, full dealership feel to 30's and 40's customs for sale, think of a Good Guys car show where it's all for sale.

Has a car show on Thursday nights
