The Peterson Museum has a world-class collection of automobiles and related stuff.
I think SLO is too far to visit on a 4 day trip to LA.

So, Ken is correct about a few things ( happens on occasion)...
SLO is pretty far and you will spend much more time driving on the freeway than exploring. If you insist on heading far north, Santa Barbara, Ojai and Solvang are all much closer and have lots to offer.
Secondly, the Peterson Museum is spectacular if you are a car guy. Along those same lines, just down the street is LACMA and the La Brea Tar Pits. As a kid, I loved the La Brea Tar Pits. Another great landmark that I loved as a kid was the Griffith Park Observatory. And, if you are in that area, Travel Town and the LA Zoo are right there as well.
Again, it's a huge city with tons to do!
