The event's Website list this as Californias "Half Moon Bay's Awe-Inspiring Festival of Majestic Machines" and adds, "Zeppelin Airship, Monster Truck Freestyle Demo, Historic Warbirds, HMB Dragstrip 50th Reunion Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show, April 26, 2009 at Half Moon Bay Airport"

"There's nothing quite like the Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show - Half Moon Bay's massive celebration of mechanical ingenuity, power and style. It's a whimsical, fascinating, amusing, curious and absolutely unique show and tell spectacle featuring 2,000 magnificent driving, flying and working machines from the 20th and 21st centuries. The world's coolest cars of every era and style, model-T fire engines, vintage buses, custom motorcycles, tricked out trucks, sleek streamliners, one-of-a-kind antique engines and tractors and historic military aircraft will be among the mesmerizing displays."

"This show is largely muscle cars and hot rods.....
The 1953 Dodge was one of my favorites, a 60K original mileage car out of Vermont. There were some larger than life custom truck based hot rods with things like Detroit Diesel V12s or some air cooled aircraft V12s for power. Interesting to look at and see the work that went into the engineering of these monster vehicles. My favorites are British cars but there were only about 12-15 of these there, including the latest and hugest Rolls Royce sedan. My '69 Austin America attracted some attention but not from the standard hot rod crowd. You can see part of it just behind the Cadillac rat rod."
