We fired up the Fairlane, loaded it with toys and drove about 4 miles down to the Purist Group car show and Toy Drive hosted at Hankook Tires in Rancho Cucamonga, California. It was nice to not have to drive an hour to get to an event.

The range of cars was impressive from old AE86 Drift Machines to a Bugatti. The event was a success and a container full of toys was collected and thousands of dollars raised to support the LA Mission, Reach Out World Wide, and other local charities.
