Default LA trip next week...

Hey fellas:

The fam is going to LA next week and besides the Petersen museum is there anything else interesting to do there?

Do they have their own drag strip?

Thanks!

There's a company in LA called ICON 4X4. They modernize and rebuild 47-55 Chevy pickups, Toyota FJ's and new and old Ford Broncos.

Owner is a guy named Jonathon Ward. He posts videos on You tube of his finished products. His builds start at 450K...

I like those old Chevy pickups. What he does to them IS insane!!!

If you or anyone here, has not watched one of his finished build videos...PLEASE DO!!!


I think he gives tours...

They are jacking up the price of disney again I hear...

They are both getting a little older and already went to FLA a few years back so we will prolly end up on Universal for their halloween thing.

The boy was born on 10/31 so it's right up his alley.

I got outvoted and vetoed for the carshow and the drag strip but what a great week. The fam didn't want to leave, especially with snow waiting at home - in October!

Never seen so many Tesla's in my life and one self-driving car.

Santa Barbarra was just beautiful and Universal was crazy busy. The wax museum was very impressive and the beach was amazing.

I can cross In&Out off my fast food bucketlist - it was only fair, five guys is better IMO.

We're anxious to go back now...lol
