Vintage Car Sale and Swap Meet

Petersen Automotive Museum hosts a garage sale for the car junkie

Are you a car lover? Then listen up as Petersen Automotive Museum is having a garage sale like no garage sale you have ever seen. The museum is giving you a chance to buy parts, props, store products, books and even a 1978 Chevrolet Chevette. If you don't fancy the vintage 'Vette, Motor Trend gives you plenty of other head turners that just might.

Other vehicles [along with a 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SEL owned by Danny Kaye] in the no reserve silent auctions include a 1934 Chevrolet two-door Coach project, 1984 Chrysler Executive Sedan (limo), 1983 Plymouth Colt owned by Dennis Woodruff, Yamaha XS1100SF motorcycle, and a 1987 Puch Sport Moped.

In addition to the great buys offered by the museum, local residents and automotive junkies will also have booths set up to ensure a great selection of automotive must-haves.

The sale and swap meet will take place at the Petersen Museum Parking Structure (6060 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles) on Saturday, Dec. 5, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The sale and swap meet is free to attend and it is just one of the amazing events that will take place at Petersen's.

After you locked up the winning bid on the '78 Vette, you can head over to the museum and look around for half the normal admission price. The tour for the museum will be discounted to $5 for all who attend the free sale and swap meet.

The fourth annual CARnival Family Fun Day will also be in full swing in the museum and will provide artistic and educational fun for children of all ages.

Find that missing part for your exotic, classic, or muscle car or motorcycle, buy a Christmas gift for the auto enthusiast in your life, or purchase a restoration project, or just drive away in the car of your dreams!
