There is also a local car show in Fullerton called the Muckenthalen Rod & Custom Car Show. Went to this last year turned out to be a good show.
Admission is $5.00
From 8:00 to 3:00pm
Address is 1201 Malvern Ave.
Fullerton

 

Nice. I tried my crystal ball to find out the date but it was inconclusive. Yo!

 

Does anybody want to meet up on saturday and cruise over to the show and check out the cars?.

 

The show is this weekend 15th and 16th. 8 to 2 saturday (Rods and Customs) and 10 to 4 Sunday (Concours d'elegance).
Wish I could go saturday but am working all day saturday.

 

Tracy I was planning on checking it out Saturday. Parking is a royal pain up there, you are lucky to find one space let alone group parking. They may have a shuttle going in and out but I'm not sure. It is a pretty good show with lots of nice cars.

Here are some pics I took in 2006

Maybe we all find our own way there and meet up at the entrance at 10:00 am, just a thought, open for suggestions. Todd (Uma)

 

They used to have parking available just down the street at Raytheon and shuttle service to Muckenthaler. I didn't see that advertised this year on the Muckenthaler web site.

Last year I kinda felt like I didn't get much value for my $5 entrance, so I'm not completely decided on whether or not I'll make it this year. I've got lot's of activity at home this weekend, so we'll see...

Works for me Todd, see you there.

 

Did you notice the "Overhaulin" cars at that show? I picked out the '64 Vette and the '30 Ford (Black Phaeton) as a couple.

 

Yes there were a few of the overhaulin cars there and a few of Chip Foose's own cars. My buddy Skeeter used to do work on the overhaulin cars after they were on the show. They had to be certified by a mechanic before the owners got them back. Some cars took months to complete after the show due to various issues. When you throw that many aftermarket parts at a car made by many different companies things don't always work together. They always looked good on TV though. In the later episodes you rarely saw the cars drive off at all, they just stood around them in the shop and started the engines up.

I must say they were top notch cars when they were done and were completely rebuilt show quality vehicles.
