The Third Annual King Midget Meet at the Petersen in LA

 If you've been to the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, you know it is enormous and features one of the finest collections of automobiles in the world. If you haven't been there, it's about time! On Saturday, April 24th, Museum Director Dick Messer along with Marv Landon will host the third annual King Midget meet. Don't miss it! 

Doors open at 8:00 on Saturday morning and the program will kick off at 10:00. Admission is just $25 per person, which includes a nice lunch, and no charge for parking. A busy schedule is planned so be there early. If it can all be fit in, the program will include:

  • Museum tour led by Dick Messer

  • KM Gymkhana on the fourth level parking lot

  • Potato run test of driving skill and passenger coordination

  • Drive to The Grove, shopping center site of the LA Farmer's Market

  • Technical presentation on restoring King Midgets by Dick Russ

  • Book signing by Bob Vahsholtz

Those traveling some distance may want to come early. There's plenty of room to park your King Midget and its trailer in the Museum's secure parking garage on Friday or even Thursday night. The Farmer's Daughter Hotel is about a mile from the museum and a favorable rate may be available. Tell the reservation desk you're visiting the Petersen Museum's King Midget Meet and ask for a special rate. All motels in the area tend to be fairly expensive--perhaps $125 per night. Some of the fans hope to get together on Friday evening at the Farmer's Daughter for dinner and conversation. It's located at 115 South Fairfax Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90036  Phone (323) 937-3930
