Great photo's and video. Wonderful sunset photo too. Each year this show gets better and better. Looking forward to next year already.
Factory Five’s video pro Greg Hoy is producing a cool 8-12 minute video documenting the 2012 Huntington Beach Cruise-In. We figured it would be fun to post little sections of his video as he finishes them. Here’s the section that shows the Car Warriors ’33 Hot Rod unveiling that happened at 10:30 AM on the morning of the cruise-in. More chapters to come soon.
Factory Five Mike (289_FIA) sent us this image of the Factory Five truck heading back east after Huntington Beach. Thanks for the cool shot Mike!

As most of you already know, the Moment of Thunder is a tradition at the Huntington Beach Cruise-In to pay tribute to those we have lost in the Factory Five community. Here’s the video from this year’s Moment of Thunder.

Great Job Erik! You should be a talk show host! Maybe your first guests could be "Jack da Bat" and Dr. Ruth.

My wife and baby son just happened to be walking around HB that morning and meandered through the show. I gotta say that it was the coolest thing to be walking through there when everyone was firing up their engines! Thanks for being there that morning and letting my wife see how awesome the roadsters are, she immediately said, "if you're going to get a new hobby or project or whatever, DO THIS!"
