4 of 5 cars with guys & gals from the San Jose, SF, Nova Scocia, and Finland areas are coming down for Track Day the Thursday before and the Malibu Cruise.

We love the Rock Shop, the overlook of Malibu Canyon and Seafood Place on the coast. Good clean fun and LA Car Culture at its best. Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

I'll be there in the swap on Saturday, truckload of 273 parts and anything else I can scrape up.

I have the day off the day of the Malibu cruise, and I'm planning on joining the cruise. I'm still debating if I want to enter in the car show. I do consider it all day parking for 25 bucks. lol

Anyone else coming from the Downey/Long Beach/Whittier area? @MrJLR if you're coming from Chino, then you're sort of going by me (kinda).

3 weekends left! I hope you get it done.

I've bee on the cruise once, and it was really fun. Getting back home in Friday night traffic wasn't fun though. That's the part I'm not looking forward to.

There's some stuff I need to do to my Duster too. I need to bleed the brakes, clean up the engine bay, give the interior a good cleaning, and clay bar wax the exterior.

I guess that's what I'll be doing these 3 weekends.

It "should" go back in this weekend.....if it works correctly this time, I'm good to go!

If your a FABO member and showing a car, do us a favor and put a FABO ID on your windshield. That way we can say hi when we see your car if your standing next to it. Ill be wearing my black 65 Barracuda shirt, no car this year.
 
My wife and I are planning on the cruise and Saturday show. I will need to spent two nights, friday and thursday. Where you you all staying?
 
Looks like my son and I will be there on Saturday. I may be in the market for some EXCELLENT (don't have to be absolutely straight, but MUST be rust-free) '68 Dart fenders, either from a 340 GTS or a plain Dart with NO TRIM HOLES. No fender mount turn signals, either.
 
Taking the Dart, meeting up with a few FBBO members somewhere in the central valley for the drive down. Starting at Willow Springs, going to Van Nuys on Thursday evening. Lots of members staying at the Air-Tel hotel by the Van Nuys airport.
 
We're heading down Friday morning as my son has to pick something up for work in Chino. We're likely staying at my cousin's house in Chino Hills.
 
Where is every one staying for out of towners?

Usually the Carriage Inn and the Airtel have a lot of folks. I was very late making a reservation so I'm at the Sherman Hotel, which is still close to the park. I will arrive late Friday sometime.
 
Would like to make it down but the older I get, the busier I get & the further north I move up the state makes it more difficult to get my butt down there. After going for 20+ years (and 15+ in the Fall), my main reason for going down there these days would be to see old friends. Have fun all and be safe.
 
Crap! Have a wheel that is cracked, leaking air. Brand new torque thrust II wheels. Wont get replacement till after the Fling!! :BangHead::BangHead: Going to miss it this year!!

Oh no! That's a bummer!

I'm dealing with some last minute issues too. Ugh! realized that the pop-out latch nut fell out of my quarter window. Now I need to figure out something to hold the window in.

I hope it won't cost you anything to replace it. Hopefully you have a warranty or something.

The crack/hole is between the while marks in the second picture.
