sportscars Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I have had several people keep asking me about doing a PCH cruise. I will start the research on it in the next few weeks. I'm thinking next July or August maybe. Always cool along the coast - be a great escape from the Texas heat for me! Looks like about 1400 miles from LA to Seattle. Probably take at least 5 days including meals, sight seeing and fuel stops. Of course it would be all inclusive (hotels and meals as well as any museums, entry fees, etc.). I'll keep you updated on the progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being that I live in the Monterey area, if you need any leg work if Monterey or Carmel will be a venue, let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you timed it right with Monterey in mid-August, you could take in a day or two of the car action here on the Monterey peninsula, which is world-class This pic is along 17 Mile Drive, Carmel / Pacific Grove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARALD KELLEY Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Great suggestion Tom. He can see some pictures I posted http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/topic/82147-monterey-classic-car-week/ If one stop is to stay in the Monterey area during the car action, hotels will need to be booked ASAP. Nice drive would be along famous 17-mile drive-Pebble Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY500SS Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Just an idea......you could end the journey on Vancouver Island BC. Drive the cars onto the ferry boat in Port Angeles WA for the 2 hour ride over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnf Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 This sounds really interesting. I know of a couple of Shelby owners that would consider driving over to LA to participate. Watching to see how this progresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfergeek Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 This is something I would love to do to. Love the idea of combining it with Monterey festivities as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Just an idea......you could end the journey on Vancouver Island BC. Drive the cars onto the ferry boat in Port Angeles WA for the 2 hour ride over. Or you could just time it right and end it at Grabberfest !!!

robertlane Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 If you're going a west coast drive, which I think is a great idea, you must please get Michael McGuirk involved as this is his region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also recommend in addition to Michael , you also get a hold of John Farmer ( Pacific Northwest Regional director ) and Grabber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glroy Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Just an idea......you could end the journey on Vancouver Island BC. Drive the cars onto the ferry boat in Port Angeles WA for the 2 hour ride over. Great idea, Dan. Glen and I have tons of room at our house and could host a get-together, maybe a cruise of some sort and we have room for some to stay with, if wanted. As you know, it's beautiful scenery/vistas around here!! We've also done that trip a number of times and have some suggestions which we'll talk to Sean about....for sure, we agree Monterey and the 17 mile drive should be part of it!
