Car Show in the neighborhood, Part 1 Porsche
The San Diego local section of the Porsche Club of America had their annual meeting today. One of their goals was to have a model from each year (60!) the company has been selling cars (in the US?).
My friend is a recent member of the PCA but didn't bring his car - so we just walked and admired the vehicles there. Here's a quick overview:
This car appeared to be a survivor rather than a trailer queen
I can tell you confidently that Green is the new Red, as far as the cars at this show. I've never seen so many green cars, let alone Porsches!
It was a nice day - not too hot, not cold at all.
This yellow car is a Cayman with a custom body kit
I was sure this would turn out to be a Singer, but no, it was a locally-restored/modified car
The engine looked expensive!

I was pleased that this group of Porsche fans were not afraid to get down and dirty with the (green) cars
And there were kids being taught too
A cabrio with hardtop?
PCA Orange car (not Dutch)
The four wheels on this car were the shiniest alloys I have ever seen
A very early 911 from 1965 (green!)
Moving forward about 50 years ...
I forgot to say there were plenty of yellow Porsches too, including this one that matched my watch (moon)
not as good a match
All in all, it was very entertaining (and green). But the parking meter was ticking, and there was another club presenting their cars a couple hundred meters down the road...
Please "check" it out.

Car Show in the neighborhood, Part 2 Studebaker
We walked across the lawns of the park next to San Diego bay, and as is often the case at shows, found more interesting vehicles in the parking lot: Notice the subtle hood scoop and front/side exit exhausts! I didn't look too closely at this, but it "smel...
