Northern California Kit Car Club...

The NCKCC has several 2012 events for members, one of events was a exploration of Bencia California.
To start off...
we were lucky enough to get a guided tour of Hall Fabrication in Benicia CA.


This is a Kirkham getting setup for the road...


They have a lot of original 289 and 427 Cobras in various states of restoration:




289 FIA cobra


Really cool stuff there, Stewart Hall gave a fantastic tour of his shop, had great stories and details behind each car in his shop.

our NCKCC event continued with a visit to Specialty Sales Classic cars.
(forgot to take pictures) lots of $$$$ cars.


Then off to Pappas restaurant (after the "Restaurant Impossible" makeover) nice menu, food was tasty and the service as excellent. The Cobras got the "star" treatment in the parking lot (lots of picture taking)
after lunch we visited the state capitol in Benicia.




After a interesting guided tour of the old state capitol, we rolled over to the last stop of the day, so called "Camel Barns" sometime in the past there were camel in Benicia and now there is a museum.

So ended our day...
I would encourage anyone building or thinking of building a kit car to consider joining NCKCC, They have long history of supporting our hobby and are nice people too.
