I just got the call back from Petersen. We are on for December 1 at 10:30AM start time.

I'll post directions etc. later. If possible we should all show up at the same time. We can plan a meeting location close and then caravan in.

I'll post more later today or tomorrow..

 

IVTECH has suggested we all meet at Johnnys accross the street from the museum. That works for me, so that will be the place. I suggest that we be there no later then 10:AM. If I can get the address I will post it. I have also asked IVTECH for it.

I will try and get there earlier. For those that may get lost or have a question, please feel free to call me @ 562-481-4177. This is my cell phone and it is always on.

The museum address is:

Petersen Automotive Museum
6060 Wilshire Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90036

It is right on the corner of Fairfax and Whilshire. Please map quest directions from your location.

If there is anyone that would like to caravan from the Valley, please let me know. I will leave from Burbank at about 9:AM.

I will collect payment as we gather to pay all at once for our discount.

REMEMBER: When you pull in the parking lot, say you are with the HHR club and you are there for the tour. This way, you will not be charged for parking. They will most likely have us all park on the third floor together.

Questions? Please let me know.

 

I gave Bob the wrong spelling of Johnie's.
The address is 6101 Wilshire Blvd. it is on the NW corner of Wilshire & Fairfax (diagonal of Petersen). It shares a parking lot with $.99 store.

 

We'll be there. Can't wait to meet everyone, I (Kim) am very excited!!

 

Why aren't we just meeting in the parking garage? It's a right turn right into the garage the way we come in, and I remember a pretty hairy u-turn across the street last trip there. If we are going to socialize or do a photo there, of course we'll meet at Johnies or however it's spelled LOL. But we're on for Saturday!!

 

I think Bob's plan is to meet so we can all go into the parking garage at Petersena together.

 

Would anyone like to caravan from OC up to LA? Mitzkity, Todd ? Let me know Anyone is Welcome to join us!

 

Those that want to meet at johnnies - Johnny's or where ever can. This is not supose to be a tough one.

They do prefer we all sow up at about the same time. Just remember to say you're with the HHR club for the parking and then park on the 3rd floor unless they say otherwise. We can do a great group shot up there.

Here is my cell # so we can all keep in touch: 562-481-4177

 

Caravanning is good but we should all have the directions in mind as people can get separated in traffic and strange things can happen LOL. But, heck yes, you name the time and place.

 

More info as to what is happening at the museum Saturday.

December at the Petersen
