Star Cars at the Petersen

Each month, the Petersen Automotive Museum hosts a Breakfast Club Cruise-In, and this month it was Star Cars. Star Car Central  is a club dedicated to the movie cars we all know and love, and on Sunday morning, they filled the Petersen's upper deck with some impressive cars.PCISC-DSC_0304rOne of our favorite car movies is Bullit with Steve McQueen, and this star car Mustang certainly does the film justice. This is our friend Dave Kunz's beautiful replica of the famous Bullit car, which he recently drove in this year"s Hollywood Christmas Parade.PCISC-DSC_0305rPCISC-DSC_0297rPCISC-DSC_0303rPCISC-DSC_0300rPCISC-DSC_0298rPCISC-DSC_0299rIf you haven't seen Bullit or are just anxious to see it again, the Petersen has a screening of the movie on January 15th.
