That certainly fits the time frame. I haven't been to King City in years but I hear there are a few warbirds based there.

Random: Scirocco which VW won't sell here.

Paso Robles, an hour south of King City has a pretty good warbirds museum.

Welcome to Estrella Warbirds Museum

That looks like a Cessna Bobcat... "Bamboo Bomber"... beyond the P-40.

Sky King flew one at the beginning.

That seems to ring a bell for some reason. There were a number of planes there that day. I lost most of my photos that I took on my phone that day and was only able to recover a few.

OK... talking about the white twin radial with the blue rimmed cowlings.
Not the green on white.

Nice pics.

Yep, Cessna Bobcat...
WWII trainer for multi-engine bomber training.

Mostly wood construction, including the spar and fabric on parts, so, 'Bamboo Bomber'.


Sky King flew on in the early shows until Cessna furnished a new 310.
