My parents are in town... and today we spent some time checking out the museums in Balboa Park.
For residents of San Diego County, some museums offer free entry on Tuesdays. Today, the Automotive Museum was participating.
Here are a few of the nifty cars they have on display:
This is a 1909 International Harvester Model A Auto Wagon.
This is a 1948 Tucker. Of the 51 made, 47 are still in existence... Oh, and the "Cyclops Eye" turns with the steering wheel. Apparently the other model had a rotating fender.
The pretty one here is a 1953 Jaguar XK 120. It is known as the 120 because it can rech speeds of 120MPH. Zoom!
Ah, the DeLorean. Head for the Clocktower!!!
Lastly, I loved the leather buckles on this 1960 Bizzarrini P538. According to the information, only 3 were made with this Spider body style... and the one at the San Diego Automotive Museum is the only one that was made with a Lamborghini v-12 engine.
