Sit back. let your broadband go crazy and come with me on a journey, a journey to a slightly damp 7AM car show in Orange Country, CA.......

Very nice. It's good to see an old Ferrari that's been driven and showing the scars of its age. Man, I didn't think there were any X 1/9's left in that good a condition

Wow, those are great pics!

Looks like some decent weather.

I'm sure some were really really loud!

More MINIs needed. Maybe a GP or two.

i missed running into you Max. I was a big turn-out. Looks like this Summer is going to be GREAT for viewing cars at C & C as it continues to grow. Three lots.

Man I can't wait untill next saturday when I can join you guys! What is the featured marque next week- it doesn't matter as there are so many amazing cars that show up..

Is the black 550 a beck or is it a real 550 spyder? I liked the 330 GTO kit-i recognize that as the one based on the old Datsun 240Z.

DiLoreto didn't drive the Alfa TT to the event did he???

Do not forget that the C&C 'virgin' is obligated to buy coffee and donuts for the rest of us !

Lets all meet at Sideaches car.......

Donuts, I thought it was just coffe,so as this is OC coffee is it OC prices? Maybe I can sneek some coffee out of the hotel.

I'll look for the classic blue Mini- should be easy to find!

Coffee is $1.50 - donuts range from about $1 upwards.

There are three NAM regulars there, so you should get away with less than a $20 'hit'....

WTF?!!! Why can't I get these things even near my house? My local monthly show is a bunch of drunk rednecks doing burnouts in trucks. Granted it's fun, but I'd be willing to trade to see an Enzo do a flyby or to see people cringe in pain from the noise of a blown BBC powered Metropolitan.

You have no idea how loud the Metropolitan was - it was ear-splitting as he approached and subsided to merely 'blood hell thats loud' as he struggled to control the transmission enought o allow it to go slow and be parked.

The Enzo was real quiet, very, very quick, but stealthy, whispering death style.....

Red Necks in Trucks sounds fun - not sure how well they would be greated at a C&C event, but......
