Gary & Melissa Belvedere are planning this great event.  Car Classic serves as a reminder that behind every beautifully designed car is an innovative and talented designer—one most likely educated at Art Center College of Design. For more than 10 years, Art Center's Car Classic event has examined automotive culture and vehicle architecture through the lens of design. More than just another high-profile car show, this popular public event celebrates the very best in automotive design, showcasing the College's strong ties to industry and honoring many of our noteworthy alumni.

Join us this year for "Street to Screen" as Art Center Car Classic explores the impact transportation and entertainment design has on Hollywood and the entertainment industry—on camera, on the road and behind the scenes. Transportation designers, car collectors, filmmakers and auto and lifestyle enthusiasts will converge at Art Center's annual event to hear from and meet the people who design the vehicles that we love to see cruising Sunset Boulevard, coasting along scenic byways or roaring to life on the big screen.

It's a daylong celebration, providing attendees an up-close-and-personal look at a carefully curated selection of innovative vehicles, rare automobiles and stunning concept cars.

We will have the opportunity to go behind the scenes and tour the Campus.  There is perhaps no better way to become acquainted with Art Center than through the high caliber work of its students. This gallery offers a glance at projects created by students in each of Art Center's disciplines.        http://www2.artcenter.edu/gallery/

Details have been posted 8)

I will be coming up in the Morning from San Diego, with Guy Chandler.


Might not be able to make breakfast, but meet everybody at the Venue.


On their website they have a way to buy tickets, but not differentiated for those getting early and group parking.


Please let me know if there is a way to get tickets without going to the breakfast.


Paul Hawker

I'll be there too !

Hi Gang,
Glad to see some of you will be joining us. there's plenty of room for more.
I'm trying to find out why we can't seem to pay with Paypal as of right now. once I hear back form the school I'll let you all know. Otherwise you can just log in and pay by crdit card if you wish. You then can just print out your "E Ticket".
Thanks for being patient with us getting this thing dialed in. It's been a bit of a pain.
Gary

I got my ticket online w credit card but just now realized you posted a code VCC2014 to use. I did not enter the code. Does that matter? My ticket price was $30 but I did not see anything about the $10 parking.
Thanks,
Ben

Hey Ben,
On the registration form, about halfway down there is an option for CAR CLUB tickets and a place to enter the special code.

Call them at 626-396-2304 and see if they can assist you in switching your ticket over

Ben,
The lady in charge of all the Car Show stuff is Christine if you need to talk with someone about it.
Otherwise i'm sure you could just pay the added parking when we get there.
Gary

Jim and Judy are going.

I am very interested in going. But have a few questions...
I am going to be in Phonix AZ area that saturday (most of the day saturday) and will not have time to drive back to SD. Hop in the Viper and head out.
How will the VIP parking work if I am in my Tacoma?
My thinking is getting up real early leaving Phonix AZ and meeting up with you all at the show around 10am.

I just bought my tickets.  I am taking my new nephew-in-law, Josh,  who detailed my car recently.  We will see you at the breakfast! 

Gary and Melissa, are you interested in leaving about the same time and caravanning to the breakfast spot?  We can meet at Carl's Jr parking lot, corner of Imperial Highway and La Palma.

I am in...see you at the VIP parking :)

Derek,
If you show up at the College at 10:00 or so with a Viper I'm sure the staff will let you into the Car Corral area, where you should be able to find us. You can call me if you have problems either getting in or finding us.
Gary Belvedere (714) 412-6261

Hi John, Glad to see you're bringing Josh, maybe he can drum up some new business and make some of our old paint jobs look like yours.
As for when we're heading out to Pasadena, we'd loved to hook up with you guys for the run out there.
Why don't you tex me your phone number or call me when it's convenient and we'll discuss a time.
Gary (714)412-6261

Eddie and Brad are in see you at breakfast, thank you Gary and Melissa for putting this together.

I'll be attending with my daughter Natasha, so add me to the list please.

Please count me and one guest in.

What a fun Day.  Thank you Gary and Melissa for coming up with and running a perfect event.  We had a great turnout of Club members that showed up with their Vipers detailed "to the nines."  Where can you see five generations of Batmobiles?  Being able to get a first hand look at the classrooms really pulled it all together.

Good job!  Glenn and Steph

Thanks to Gary, Melissa, and everyone involved for another great event!  The cars were varied and unique, the stars were on hand, and a glimpse into the world of automotive design was priceless.  I only wish I could be 20 again so I could enroll!  Maybe in the next life 8)

THANK YOU Gary and Melissa for setting this one up for us.   



It was really cool seeing behind the scenes and checking out their incredible work.
I have pictures up on my site   www.kouchicentral.com (http://www.kouchicentral.com)

Appreciate Gary and Melissa putting together this unique event that provided insite into how the cars of the future are being designed, and getting to meet so many of the young students that will be guiding the future of transportation.


The collection of vehicles on the lawn blew everyone away. From hearing and seeing Jay Leno arrive in his Chrysler turbine car, the 5 or 6 Batmobiles from the movies, and of course hearing the 16 cal. silver bullet firing up it's huge Packard marine engine out of a PT Boat (for sale!) it was both entertaining and educational.


Fun way to spend a Sunday morning.
