Uncle Joe Benson at work & play at the 2007 GoodGuys Hot Rod Show.

March 10, 2007: The Orange County Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa was the site of the 1st Orange County Get Together Hot Rod Show. J.B. spent the morning hanging with the KLOS Cool Patrol, chatting with fans and admiring the best Hot Rods the O.C. has to offer!

Hundreds of beautiful rods on display.

Folks were having fun!

Everyone loved cruising around the Fairgrounds.

Vintage rods were everywhere.

Jeff Beck, Billy Gibbons, Michael Anthony, Jimmy Vaughan and
some guy named Joe.
