Default Cars & Coffee v.6.30 *Domesticated Edition*

Domesticated Edition!

This weekend was a great weekend to be at Cars & Coffee, it seemed like it was the weekend for people to show off what they had bought the previous weekend at Barret Jackson in Orange County. This of course meant tons and tons of cars from the U.S. domestic brands. It was great because we got to see both perfectly restored examples and really cool customs. But even then we still had a great variety of automobiles from around the globe present.

I don't normally discuss my personal favorites, but this weekend there were four cars which really caught my attention. Guess which ones they are and I will tell you guys all I know about them.

Enjoy!

The Green GT40 is my favorite car as it is the real deal. Then number two would be the Siata 208S. Number 3 would be the green 51 Ford converted to look like a 50 and 4th would be the '89 Mustang Lx Notchboack with 10k original miles.

The Green Ford GT40 has lived much of its life in Australia and has been driven extensively both in competition and just as a "regular" road car. It is not in prime show condition, it is a true drivers car and its newest owner likes it for being that. He intends on driving it extensively though out the course of his ownership. The guy drives it 140 miles round trip just to attend Cars & Coffee.

The car had the great luck of being randomly chosen to be inspected by customs when it was imported just a few weeks ago. It was completely dismantled by them. Its owner was extremely nervous that they would break something.

Oh and the red thing that looks like a Cobra, the Siata 208S is a very rare car. It is one of 37 built. It is powered by a 2.0L V8 making 130hp
