This is the 7th Marina High Customs & Classics Car & Motorcycle Show to benefit the Cheerleaders team. A high school car show is like a “grab bag”, you never know what you’re going to get. This show attracted some very nice cars and some well done “daily drivers”. After all this is Huntington Beach. The Marina High School parking lot was filled with cars, vendors, food, and lots of cheerleaders providing demonstrations of their craft. The DJ entertained through the day. This show had a “hometown” feel with some impressive participants.

Thanks for the Show!
