It was my first time seeing classic American cars in person, and I was blown away at how detail-oriented they are! The fact that people designed and manufactured these awe-inspiring cars almost a hundred years ago is truly astonishing.

If you are visiting Los Angeles, I highly recommend that you plan a visit to Petersen Automotive Museum at 6060 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90036!
