Nerd Pilgrimage Part 2

Today, I flew into LAX. After getting my rental car, I couldn't help but drive past 6501 W Imperial Hwy. Here are some pictures I took.

Much like when I went to the location of the San Jose Plant, it was really amazing to see the area and picture what it would've been like in the 60s.

So cool for a geek like me! 🤓

The birthplace of greatness.....

Was Dean Moon's shop in Norwalk. Pretty much the same today as when CS assembled the first west coast Cobra there. http://mooneyes.com/ CS had to move when Goodyear and Firestone didn't like Dean Moon selling Firestone race tires out the front door and Shelby selling Goodyear race tires out the back door.

Santa Fe Springs, very neat place.  My buddy and I were standing in the very place CSX 2000, so cool, was put together.  Also had a shop tour and was able to meet the gentleman who built and welded up all the original Moon tanks.Can't remember his name but Have pictures somewhere.
