  • The morning starts off at 5:30 am and joining up with a group of hotrods from Southern, CA. We drive down the Pacific Coast Highway to Huntington Beach, CA for the Donut Derelicts. The weekly Cars and Coffee is jammed pack with Hotrods, Customs and more. After breakfast 15+ Traditional Hotrods drive down the 405 to Lions Automobilia Museum. The car museum houses one of the biggest Willys collections and is a tribute to the old Lions Dragstrip. Rick Lorenzen and team were very welcoming to our group.
    Next, we made our way to a Private Collection of Hotrod Parts, Antique Cars, Automotive Signs and more Collectibles that a pair of brothers had been gathering for 50+ years.
    Finally, our drive takes us back through Huntington Beach, CA while driving in a Topless 32 Ford Roadster as we make our way down the PCH towards Laguna Beach, CA.
    It was a full day of Driving Hotrods along the California Coastline.

    I liked your video. Since I live in So Cal I've been there and it's a great time. We've been having a lot of rainy days so I'm anxious to get out a drive my hot rod. Your video has me excited
    to dust off the car and. visit a cars and coffee or two. The Grand National Roadster Show of 2023 was a great success and the L.A. Roadster Show in June is another one to look forward to.

    I've got a 1930 Ford Model A Fordor. The engine I'm putting in is a 1968 Ford 302. My cousin ran the number on the block with his smart phone . He says that it's supposed to be from a 1968 Shelby. Is that true .? I don't know. But I do know that I only paid $200.00 dollars for it and that included a small block bolt pattern C-6 and a B&M shifter for it so I think I did o.k. In my youth I cruised that same stretch of P.C.H. many many times. Had a lot of fun with my friends, some sadly are no longer with us.

    Great Video, Excellent Stuff!!! But am I the only one that wishes this and many others would "lose" the music...Way to overbearing, can barely even hear the commentator. So many of the car cruisin clips etc all over youtube, suffer the same issue in my book. The scenery and the cars etc is all that's necessary 👌 However, thanks for the trip through your lense/eyes. Terrific Stuff!!!

    • @OpposingCylinders
      @OpposingCylinders  2 роки тому +1

      We agree in this scenario. The issue we got into though was there was so much wind noise being in an open roadster. We had to tone the wind noise down and add a little music. We felt if we would have just the wind or silence then it would have been worse. We try to leave the car sounds in the beginning driving our of Laguna Beach and taking off as a group. In some situations we have to add music to drown out background music at an event we cannot control or it is a copyright issue and we will have a video taken down or that section completely silenced. It happened to us in the past even though we could not control it.

      @@OpposingCylinders Yeah really...ya kiddin me??? It's a sad world these days when something innocently in the background causes any sort over-reaction. Bloody Ridiculous!!! Thanks for the reply, I truly meant no malice, but upon re-reading my comment, it could easily have been taken that way, 🤦‍♂️ Thanks for catching my drift, and look forward to more 🤙
