Last weekend, Saturday Oxnard Strawberry festival. Wife had never seen Santa Barbara so we took an extra day to take the 45 minute drive up the coast... stumbled onto a car show on state street:

My wife in front of an Austin Healey (looking annoyed at people walking in front of me while we were trying to take the picture):



A car my wife and I can agree on...



This lady is asking $67K, what are kidneys selling for?



Elks had a charity run the same day:







In my dreams:

Never seen THE batcar so no idea is this is the original or a copy... looked like new so it was either very well preserved or restored... or a knockoff.

Looks like a great time Scott - the older I get it seems the more fun I have if it didn't come from planning, that it just happened. Anyways...

I think that 'stang has a great look - any info on the intake or engine or what made it so spendy $$?

At a car show in LaVerne last weekend I saw this - not an original race car, but nicely set up for racing today nonetheless - I'd love to own it!

Sorry for the confusion, the vette was all numbers matching and priced at $67K

The Stang wasn't for sale (that I could tell) but was listed as a "bullit replica".

The car show took up at least five blocks of State street!

The Batcar wheels did look like Cragers (hard to tell while moving and with the bat emblems on the wheel.

Only partially correct. You're right in that the Lincoln Futura became the first Bat Mobile but THAT car is NOT the original Bat Mobile. There is a company that is producing knock offs. This is one of them.
