So many of those cars look like they're in for minor work. Oooh! a TVR? The little details are interesting about that shop. That place is so busy, I'd like to see it when the economy is booming.

A lot of the cars were in for maintenance, but there were at least 10 restos underway. Then, there were several under plastic waiting their turn. One guy did a barn find on two of his own cars-supposedly "lost track" of them, and found 'em under a tarp on one of his properties. One looked to be a 365gtb, and the other an old Spyder.
That dark blue 330GTC looked like it was a new car being built. The entire engine bay and motor looked new. The silver 250 is listed for about $600k. That McLaren Can Am car was just over $200k.

Ed- I met the folks who organized the RSF event (Land Rover Series III) recently at the Encinitas Summer cars event- really nice people! How were they as a group to drive with?
Looks like Cavallo's is off the hook!

This was all about being there. The drive was simply a run up PCH. Since Chris and Dawn were driving their Land Rover, not much speed involved. Kinda strange, out for a drive with no radar detector needed.

The Alfa's were my fav and the yellow Dino....
Couple more pics, one as proof the Lagonda was driven.
It was weird not being worried about the CHP on every blind corner....I actually saw scenery while driving! Didn't realize I had all that dashboard glare on the windshield. on the one photo. But I have a short clip of Ruby snorting along on a couple corners.... I'll upload it later.

Well Ed, when one drives up the Pacific Coast Highway on a nice summer's day, one can't help but take in all of the scenery to be seen. Oh, the beaches looked nice too.
