1964 Ford Galaxie Photo Ohlen Alexander

Once again, dads and non-dads enjoyed the Motorama World of Wheels Car Show on Father's Day last Sunday. With food, music and an incredible array of cars, this has become an annual tradition for local car buffs. While the admission was free, proceeds raised went to support the Lamorinda Sunrise Rotary community service programs. Folks had the opportunity to "buy" votes for their favorite vehicle - cars from the '20s and '30s to a shiny new Tesla. The winner received a very stylish trophy made from car parts.
One of the more popular cars was the Galaxia de la Baja, the customized 1964 Ford Galaxie that recently returned from Mexicali, Mexico and the Baja 1,000 - proud winner of second place in its class and 16th overall. The Triple Nickel Racing Team is owned by Rene Aguirre of the Mechanic, formerly Urban Suburban.
