I like the door signage, especially:
"Used Tires - Bail Bonds"

Okay, parkwood, what is the LARS?

In talking to Wayne (Parkwood) he was going to the So Cal speed shop open house on his way to LARS. It looks like most of these pics were taken at So Cal. LARS would be much more packed. He was just doiong us a solid keeping the lookout for trucks.

Highsider, the pictures were taken at open house at SoCal speed shop on Friday.. all the other pictures I took were early ford roadsters, only about 300 cars showed up here.. the LARS maybe had 3000... 50% ford roadsters...

Re: Trucks at the LARS

For those not in the "know" several shops in the LA area hold open house every year on a day during the week before the Roadster Show. Some also do it before the Grand National Roadster show or different shops do it then.
