Go to Portillos. Theres only one in California. Get yourself a big beef with moz and peppers.

Its the equivelent to taking the red pill.

There is a car museum on Continental and Mariposa about 5Min from LAX. Older cars and not too big but will kill some time.

Google Maps is really helpful. Use the 'search nearby' tab

hey vinyljunkie,is that your car?that thing lookss awersome.do you have a full picture of it?

linkwpc · 03-10-2010, 02:55 PM

You can go the gokart place in torrance. K1 speed.

If you want to grab something to eat, there's an In-N-Out right there on Sepulveda...the beach is close by, kinda windy though. On Imperial in El Segundo (not Imperial Highway which is right next to Imperial) you can sit on some park benches and watch planes take off. Lots of people are always doing that.

On Main St there are a couple bars if you want to grab food/beer. The Tavern on Main is good. Steer clear of the El Tarasco on Main St though...they were closed recently for vermin infestation.

You could pop by the refinery right there on El Segundo Blvd and say hello to me

I'm working right now until 5pm. My Camaro is in the parking lot too

yes and no...im getting that hood and possibly the chin but im looking for all functional products. I'm making mine more for track so lots of $$ going into it. My grill looks almost exactly like that without the SS.

The hood is exactly going to be like that, color and all. once i get it ton ill post pics of it.

You could make up to the Petersen Auto Museum, walk around for a bit and be back to LAX within 3 hours. It's only about half an hour from the airport. Jut go up La Cienega to Fairfax & Wilshire.
