Default Twin FoFiddyFoz (454)

The twin blown GTO reminded me of a trip I took to LA a couple year ago and of a certain Hot Wheels Car exhibit I saw while I was at a car museum.

Unfortunately my camera died while I was there and I had left the charger in Georgia, but I got a couple of cool pictures I thought I could share.

First off, the functional Hot Wheels Twin Mill. Two blown 454s if I recall correctly.

In another section were celebrity cars which had been featured in various videos over time.

From memory I believe they were:


Snoop Dogg


Marylin Manson


Metallica


I think ZZ Top for the last two.

Chip Foose had stuff on display as well. My favorite being the old truck that his father redid for him as a project. Thought the newer style Tbird was classy considering how big of a failure the car was.

And then just a couple random ones I found on my comp. If I had known how cool this place was I probably would have spent less time using my camera battery on hot chicks playing beach volleyball, but oh well. Live and learn in LA.

Nice pics.

I've actually been in a car built by Chip Foose. Wes Rydell stopped by my old job with the "CoolAire" a rebuilt BelAire. Pretty sweet car.

Was that at the Petersen? They didn't have nearly as much cool stuff when I was there, I was disappointed. And I kept setting off the damn proximity alarms

May have been, it was a blurry 10 day trip visiting my older brother. He knew I loved cars and insisted that I go to this huge museum of car. Petersen sounds about right, I was probably hung over to hell when I drove there.

Yeah, I'll have to remember to get the pics off my phone when it's charged and post 'em up.
