so far I've posted 8 legit Snoopy vehicular posts, and here's another, but it's something no one recalls or knows of. Apollo 10 lunar module

Snoopy had also chosen as an official symbol of merit for America's space program, and cartoonist Charles Schulz even designed original artwork for missions, brochures, posters, etc.

And to this day, the Lunar Module Snoopy is still intact… the lone true LM ascent stage which still survives. Why? Because it’s still out there in heliocentric orbit!

Through the decades, the connections between the Peanuts cartoon and NASA have remained evident in art, awards and mission control mascots. Each year, "Silver Snoopy" awards are presented to NASA employees who demonstrate excellence in their work.

Sonoma County / Charles Schulz airport

Schulz had long ties to Santa Rosa and to Sonoma County. He and his first wife, Joyce, built a home in the city of Sebastopol in 1958. The airport in Santa Rosa Airport is officially titled the Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport and features bronze sculptures of the Peanuts characters. Its logo is Snoopy flying on top of his doghouse.

Ink Pot Award recipient 1974 https://www.comic-con.org/awards/inkpot

Steve Magnante at Hot Rod just came across a one family owned 1965 Gt 350 with only 41 thou miles, still being drag raced

on June 15, 1965, the Walls brothers took delivery of Shelby Mustang number 5S127, a stone-stock 1965 G.T. 350 that left Shelby's LAX conversion plant on April 26.

Changes over the next decade included a swap to 5.14 gears, Hilborn mechanical fuel injection, and a 305 (a 302 overbored 0.030). In full race mode, Snoopy ran a best time of 12.03 at 118 mph.

The brothers raced Snoopy through 1972, then garaged it.

In 1983 one brother bought out the other's share of the car, and went to license it... as they had always used dealer plates for the previous 18 years. The state slammed them with taxes and fees. Ouch.

For the next 15 years Walt and his sons Bobby and Steven enjoyed showing the car and even garnered two Second Place and one Third Place concours awards at SAAC meets.

Walt passed away in 2010, leaving the heirloom Mustang to his sons. Having grown up with the car, they respected its significance as a rare Shelby but more so as a remembrance of their beloved father. After talking it over with close friends and the many folks who remembered its dragstrip exploits, the sons decided in 2015 to reapply the Snoopy graphics just as they appeared in 1966.

I just learned that there is a Snoopy California license plate edition in the works, as soon as all 7500 are ordered and paid for, they'll be made and shipped out

Even though the State of California recently passed a budget, there have been severe cuts and many projects have been put on hold. The California Association of Museums remains committed to getting Snoopy on the road despite this “speed bump” and they're working hard to get your favorite beagle on your license plate as soon as possible.

So far, about 5500 of the needed 7500 orders are placed. You can order yours at www.snoopyplate.com

or check out the California Association of Museum's Facebook page for occasional updates: https://www.facebook.com/calmuseums

The basic plan has not changed: when they launch the pre-purchase period, they will collect a $50 fee from anyone who wants to get their own Snoopy plate - or a bit more if you would like it personalized. When they reach the magic number of 7,500 folks who have completed an application and paid the fee, the plates will go into production, and voilà, Snoopy is yours.

When the plate is produced, proceeds will go towards supporting museums in California communities.

58 museums across California have banded together to help promote the plate, and are giving free or discounted admission to the first 7500 people who order the plate. Bonus!

Snoopy's home ice Zamboni, at the Redwood Empire Ice Arena in Santa Rosa Ca

https://www.snoopyshomeice.com/zamboni.html

Trivia:
Machine No. 4 is in the US Hockey Hall of Fame in Eveleth, MN and machine No. 21 (originally sold to the Boston Bruins in 1954) is presently at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, Canada.

 Frank J. Zamboni was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Engineering from Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY in 1988.

The shape of the Zamboni ice resurfacing machine (like the shapes of the Jeep® grille and the Coca-Cola® bottle) is a federally registered trademark.

On January 1, 1995, Rotary International’s Tournament of Roses Parade float entry titled “Lending a Helping Hand” featured Snoopy at the wheel of a Zamboni machine, surrounded by the PEANUTS characters.

Charlie Brown said it best: “There are three things in life that people like to stare at: a flowing stream, a crackling fire, and a Zamboni clearing the ice.”

Obscure but interesting, a moderate sized 1967 Coot Snoopy funmobile (toy car) that was given to Charles Shultz in trade for a Snoopy logo for the model
