Default Saleen Motorsports Cars&Coffee Corona, CA Saturday's 7-9 AM

http://soec.org/cars-coffee-corona-e...day-saleen-hq/

A buddy of mine turned me on to this. It's very local to me, so I'll be there this coming Saturday.

Saleen Motorsports is right off the 91 Freeway at Serfas Club Drive (near In & Out).

Thanks

George

I went this morning with my son and buddy who brought his 2015 Z06. We saw a wide variety of classic muscle and exotics. There were some really cool Saleen cars too. There was one other ZR-1 (1991 black/black) on display and the owner and I spent a lot of time chatting. The Corona Chamber of Commerce served coffee and it was a very cool, well organized, and laid back event. Good times had by all. I made a small sign to stand by my car.... It came out OK, but I have plans to make it a little nicer.

Was Steve Saleen there? Are they still in business? Thought they declared bankruptcy.

I believe he was there, but I wasn't really paying attention when my friend pointed him out. The company is currently in business, but I believe it is different than the one he originally started. Here's a link to their website: www.saleen.com.

Thanks,

My son and I attended today. Saleen was having an open house/show so we got to see a wide variety of their creations (Tesla, Challenger, and LOTS of Mustangs). Steve Saleen was on hand. Here's a pic of him with my son in front of a 2015 Mustang....

Good turnout today. We had a BMW I8, new Viper, and a Zimmer Golden Spirit. We made another sign with magazine covers from way back, when the ZR-1 was new!

Some Saturdays are easier than others to get up and get the ZR-1 out on the road. Today we made it to Cars and Coffee and were glad we did. Lots of cool stuff: '56 Cadillac, Ferrari's, variety of corvettes, and classic muscle. The event is growing each week. Here are a couple pics.

The event had even more cars today. A variety of corvettes, old/new mustangs, an awesome old 911, a few VW's, classic muscle, and a 70's van conversion club showed up- complete with shag carpet, bubble windows, and 8 track tape players. A real highlight was meeting 2 corvette enthusiasts from Las Vegas (Ron and Hoss) who drove down for the day to attend a few events. Good times.
