This passed Saturday was a new event at California Car Cover. Our friends at the LA Aircooled Volkswagen Club were looking for a place to have an inaugural show and shine car show. Our facility was available this past weekend, so we let a group of classic VW owners take over our parking lot and lawn for a few hours to host the Seis De Mayo Car Show.
Classic Beetles and buses started arriving early at CCC well before the 8am roll in time. Attendees were greeted with goodie bags and donuts courtest of LA Air Cooled.
The south side parking lot was filled early in the morning with some classic VWs.
The team from Hot Rod LA was on hand doing live screen printing of the event tees and sweatshirts.
Richeeze Grilled Cheese Truck served up lunch all day to enthusiasts.
Official event tees screened by Hot Rod LA.
The front lawn was home to a few nicely restored, maintained and customized VW buses and Beetles.
LA Aircooled even had custom made trophies for a variety of categories at the show.
Thank you to Kurt and everyone at LA Aircooled for hosting a great event at California Car Cover. Our customers really enjoyed seeing the custom and restored VWs at our store. Hopefully, there will be some bigger and better events in the future together.
The 2014 edition of Big SoCal Euro took place on Sunday in San Diego, Ca. This free event attracts 1,000s of European car enthusiasts to Qualcomm Stadium for an afternoon of motorsports activities. Big So Cal Euro 2014 included a large vendor midway, local food trucks, drag racing and of course, plenty of European automobiles.
Though most of the vehicles at Big SoCal Euro were late model cars, there were still a number of classic Euro automobiles, like this Volvo, at the show.
The parking lot at Qualcomm was packed with European cars all afternoon.
Our friends from Solo-Werks were the official suspension sponsor of the event so it was good to see the guys at the show.
Thank you to everyone at Big SoCal Euro for hosting another great event. We look forward to next year's installment. Check back next week for more local event coverage courtesy of California Car Cover.
