On June 12th 3 Model A's and a plethora of other vehicles made their way over Portrero to Oxnard and the fantastic new museum of cars the Mullin Museum. Peter Mullin, who made his fortunes in the finance world has amassed a collection of French cars not surpassed in the world. Right here in Ventura County. Enjoy the car pictures and afew of the members who made the trip. a few captions along the way. Jim provided written instructions and read them to us just in case.

Dave and Art portraying the song "Meet you round the corner"

Carol's absolute favorite .... a 1952 Delahaye. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOtiful

Ken and Susan are wondering if they should replace their Model A with this one.

A beauty and would make a great color for a Corvette convertible. This was Art's favorite. maybe we'll see it on the next drive?

Fascinating story on this Bugatti. In about 1939 it was stopped at the Border and not permitted across. The owner left it behind. By law the border authorities had to destroy it so they dropped it into a lake but left a large chain attached. Over the years, the chain rusted away. In 2009 a young man was seriously injured and the town folk, remembering the story decided to raise the car to sell to raise the money. Mullin purchased it eventually and will not be restoring it. Duh???

a Bird's eye view.

On to lunch at Cafe Fiore on California Street in Ventura. Yummy

This is "Jenny's Boy" also known as Kip Coulombe's grandson enjoying his Roy Rogers.

After lunch the women explored old town Ventura and visited the Art Exhibit. More beauty.

Don't ask you just had to be there. Sorry if you weren't

Becky Halvorson and Judy Hamilton had complementing blouses for the trip to our seaside city. Even the outside of the Mullin Museum was beautiful.

Sorry more cars that got out of order in the blog. And definitely the centerpiece.
