there is a classic car museum in the Los Angeles area. I cannot remember the name. Does anyone know the name and exact location?

Scott, were you in Simi Valley last week. My wife said she saw an orange cobra. Never seen one in this area. Thought it might be you?

Scott- the Peterson is a tremendous museum that takes up an entire city block, three stories up. The real treasure is what they call the vault which is in the basement and not normally open to the public. COCOAOC had a tour last year which included the vault...if you ever get a chance to see it, don't miss it. There is also a very nice classic car museum at Balboa Park in San Diego right adjacent to the aviation museum.

no that wasn't me.
my wife and I are considering driving the cobra to the museum when we start our vacation next month. i figure we are about 250 miles away which would make it our longest trip. we'll see?
