Who was that masked man?

This guy pulled up next to me at a light the other day down on Ocean Blvd. He then proceeded to crest the Vincent Thomas Bridge and ride off into the sun.

COX


I went to an Estate sale a few months back at a house that, I cam to find out, was the residence of the owner and president of COX. I found some really great things including these gems pictured. The dune buggy art was the original illustration used for the box cover of the radio controlled version of the buggy. The gold chopper trike was the prototype for the version that was made in the early 70's. Too cool!

FOR SALE



This thing was sitting across the street from the house in the last post. I can only assume that it was owned by the same people. It was for sale but the signs were completely faded out and I couldn't read any of the info. It looks like it has been there a while. This thing is so freakin' cool...I'd love to have it! Does anybody know anything about these jeep pick ups?

Are You The Kind Of Guy

that will pull a u turn on a busy 2 lane hwy while your pulling a 50 year old wood boat with a car full of kids and the wife when you spot something out of the corner of your eye? Well, I am! Especially when I spot this!


The big rooster is pretty common. The muffler man is iconic but I don't know anyone personally that owns one. I tried to buy one years ago here in Long Beach. He stood beside a giant hardware store called Dooleys and when they closed he was for sale. I didn't have an extra 10 grand so I had to pass. The Statue of Liberty is something that I haven't seen before and the vintage outboard motors lining the fence was a nice touch.




But that airplane on the roof took me over the top. What a sight! I wish, I wish, I wish........................
