COCOA OC Cruise to Tom McIntyre Garage

Saturday, April 12, 2025

Hey club members, time for another COCOA OC driving event and a unique car garage tour. We have arranged for a special tour of Tom McIntyre’s car collection. Tom, as many of you may know, along with Lynn Park, was one of the first members of the original Cobra Owners Club back in the early 70’s. Tom has one of the nicest collections of hot rods, muscle cars and road race cars around. There are a lot of notable cars in Tom’s collection, including his original 1966 427 Cobra, Mark Donohue’s 1968 Penske/Sunoco Trans-Am Camaro along with many other special cars. Additionally, we have invited Lynn Park to join us in the camaraderie!

So, time to check the oil level on the old car and give it a little elbow grease to get it out on the road.  Remember, this is a club driving event so we want to have some Blue Oval lineage or else you have to be at the back of the procession so you can pick up the parts that fall of the real cars! Just Kidding! We really want to encourage you to get that club car out if you have one and drive it like it deserves to be driven! The main thing is that we want you to participate, no matter what you drive, so be sure to sign up for this special event.

Here is what we have planned:

  • Saturday, April 12 – Meet at our usual Main Street Mall-Wells Fargo parking lot at 9 AM and leave no later than 9:30 AM
  • We will provide all attendees with a special route that includes freeway and surface roads and also possibly a little canyon driving to Burbank. To respect Tom’s wishes not to publish his location, we will only have the route/location at the meeting spot at Main Street Mall.
  • Tour the collection from about 11 AM – 1:30 PM
  • And, as a special treat, Tom has graciously indicated that he will provide pizza and refreshments for all that attend!

In order to get an accurate count for lunch and who will be attending, please RSVP by email to Hank Jesch at hfl716@gmail.com by April 10, 2025.
