The whole parade was going at about 55 mph so I guess there were not too many hot-rods in the group... it was quite a sight and all the other cars on the road were slowing way down to look at them. Anybody know where they were going? (or coming from?) >>
These guys are probably convoying to go to tomorrow's air-cooled VW event at the Marin County Civic Center. BenT So. San Francisco |
