After a brisk early morning, the day was very comfortable. Even Santa stopped bye the November Million Dollar Breakfast Cruise in Tustin, CA. This monthly event had a very nice turnout of about 150 cars. One came from as far away as Mission Bay in San Diego, CA.  The Enderle Center is always a comfortable place with new people arriving to join the regulars. This is the time of year when getting out and enjoying the company of friends is special. Lil Torgerson of Tustin arrived in her classic ’73 Dodge Dart “Swinger” and drove through the Show to park at one of the nearby restaurants to meet her Son for breakfast. Lil is 90 years young and is the original owner of her very clean “Baby”.

  As the Show draws to a close, the winning cars are driven in front of the spectators one at a time to receive their awards, and everyone is on the way home by 11:00.
