The museum's team, in fact, wants to go for a local record at the Deuce Day Cruise-in, and the goal is as good as a hot rod is cool: They'd like to host "the largest gathering" ever of '32 Fords in Southern California.
The reason behind this go-big bash? It's the 90th anniversary of this oh-so-American icon, an important occasion on any hot road maven's calendar.
There are two ways to attend: By showing with your Deuce or another hot rod or custom car (that's $35) or joining the fun as a spectator (those tickets are $17 each).
Both of those options include free bites and beverages, as well as museum admission.
There are more Deuce-y delights revving at the world-class car destination, including a Deuce Gala, honoring Billy F. Gibbons, on June 11.
The celebrated musician will perform at the party, an event that will also feature a buffet, auction, and early peek at a new '32 Ford-themed exhibition.
