NO Cars and Coffee - 7-25-09
Is this the way it's going to be from now on?? Please say no... Where are all the cool cars hiding on early Saturday morning. It used to be that all the rare, luxury, and exotics showed up at the Irvine Ford Motor Company. Well, the last times I've been there it's been looking pretty bleak...
Do you think he drives this often??
I think someone needs to add this to his collection.... hehhehe...

Nick Alexander's Woodie Collection
Saturday, July 18th, HagertyLaura and I had the distinct pleasure of seeing for the last time Nick Alexander's Woodie collection in one place. Nick is a well known automobile dealer in LA. Also known for his Woodie restoration business and of course a major Woodie collector. Now that he's achieved his classic car goals, Nick wants to share his collection with other enthusiasts that will cherish his Woodies as he has, which is why he is putting them up for the RM Auction at Monterey this year.
The collection was housed in a huge warehouse tucked away in the industrial part of Hungtington Park. A bit out of the way from OC, but cars guys seem to sniff stuff like this out... they came from all over the place... saw so many familiar faces which was nice. One of the guys I bumped into was none other than Pieter Dwinger, head judge at the Concours d'Elegance at the St. Regis and committee member. I spent quite a bit of time with Pieter soaking up his knowledge like a sponge. He was a wealth of knowledge and knew so much about each and every car. He pointed out all the little details that he would look for when judging such beauties.
Seems like I run into Dave Lindsay Mr. "SoCalCarCulture.com" every where... he tries to keep a low profile at events but seems to get pulled into different conversations. I know because I get talking to him for hours and he doesn't get to do what he came to do... which is take pictures. Thanks Dave! We love what you do for the car enthusiasts!
