For all those who have not been there, the Peterson Automotive Museum on Wilshire Blvd., do yourself a favor and go take a look. Check for special exhibitions. I saw the "It's a Duesey" exhibition of Duesenbergs several years ago. Impressive.
A big second to the Petersen Automotive Museum visit recommendation. It is one fantastic place for car lovers of all types and models.
And its right up the street from the La Brea Tar Pits so you can see 2 famous places within easy walking distance of each other.
