Petersen Automobile Museum

Bill and I traveled to the Petersen Automobile Museum.  The museum has been rebuilt with an interesting outside shape.

It was 3 floors of more 1-off autos than I care for.  And most of the second floor was on how to design a car.  But I did find some gems.

Beautiful


Over the top

The 1967 Ford GT and the 2015 model.  Wow.  I liked the ’67 more.

Ford would be in sooo much trouble if this were on the market


Ah yes, Ken Block’s bad-ass Ford Fiesta.  A screen was showing some of his driving stunts such as burning tires off the rims.

Part of the tire print on the wall





The Petersen had an exhibit of BMWs.  What, only 3 BMWs?  It must have been in the fine print that the exhibit concerned painted BMWs.
