My 2nd SoCal trip...
Second time going down to SoCal for work first time was last year when I bought Factory Works from Daryl. This year I went down to drop off my body tools with Andy Jacobson so he can pull our bodies. We met up with Daryl for breakfast. Great times reminiscing about the good old days! (I was only 180 pounds before breakfast. Flo’s has killer food!)
Also stopped by 1655 E Mission St for a quick pic. Sacred ground here, although nothing still exists besides the physical address
Lastly, we stopped by Pegasus. Huge hobby shop where I spent way too much money. Cool stuff all around. Check out the kit box. I’d love to have a case of those! Met Joey there, great finally meeting. Then drove down to meet up with Brian.

Re: My 2nd SoCal trip...
Sadly no kits, man I wish! I would have bought the case for sure!
Yeah, the checker hit me with $475 but I did get a little better deal after all was said and done
Good stuff in this lot! I’ll update the thread later

Here's a photo of the back side of the hobby shop.
Ok, not really but when I saw the news photo today I couldn't resist:)
Sounds like a great trip - thanks for sharing.

Re: My 2nd SoCal trip...
should be. I'm sure at one point in time you talked business with someone at each spot you stopped at
