You  are quite right Larry.  Petersen Museum is always incredible to see.   
And regarding the Page Museum, aka Tar Pits,  I was just there  this week, 
again (as I've been going since I was little, and now they have  a very 
modern facility, right next door to the beautiful LA Country Museum  of Art.   
Not only do you see the actual tar pits (still  bubbling) but inside there 
glass walls where you actually see the  paleontologists at work: cleaning, 
picking at, and putting bones  together.  There feature short movies and 
skeletal  remains galore, of the many animals found in this region so very long  
ago.  Quite a fascinating place.
 
Then in case you want a car book, video, model or magazine..... Tina's  
place, in Burbank, CA. has just about everything you can't find anywhere  else:

and 7 blocks west is the BEST place ever for a bite:  Portos,

an incredible Cuban bakery, cafe, with all kinds of sandwiches,  freshly 
maded breads, salads,desserts, coffees and fresh juices  and so reasonable!!!
