What street/City did you cruise in High School?

1970-75 we cruised 4th St in Santa Rosa.

 

Bellingham WA, Late 60's to mid 70's, Cornwall Ave and Holley St. Bunks Drive in (with car hops) to Herfeys Burgers. Moved to So Cal mid 70's then cruised "E" Street. The Pacific Northwest was rockin back in those days.

 

Mid 60's...cruised the "Creek"...Walnut Creek California...from Mels drive-in to the Walnut Bowl and back...past Hokies hambugers, Parker-Robb Chevrolet, ElRey theater,Crocker Bank, where I later worked, thru the parking lot at the Walnut Bowl and then north again to Mels..Walnut Creek was one of three or four cities mentioned in a Life magazine spread on "cruising"...

 

Late 80's early 90's I street raced on diamond hill road in Woonsocket, RI. We would also go out to New Road in Webster, Ma. Late @ night; we called that area the "Twighlight Zone" It was a lot of fun street racing when I was a kid.

cruised livingston ave in New Brunswick,nj usually in my 64 plymouth 1969 thru 1971 alotta racing went on out there, had a motorcycle cop out on the ave in those days that took no shit at all, if he caught you probably could count on a citation or two.

 

Cruised Columbia St and Superior Ave. In Bogalusa Louisiana.... Lots of drag racing on Columbia St

 

Me too. What high school did you attend? I went to Monte Vista before they made it into the Sheriff's Academy. I attended from '68-'72. Of course I could only drive from '70 on.

First in my Dad's purchasd-new '55 Chevy two door hardtop Belair. Later in my '66 Chevy van; butternut yellow with HUGE Ansen slot dish mags in the rear, whip antenna, fog lights, the whole obnoxious trip.

 

Douglas & Hillside. Wichita, KS. '55-'58.

 

Tommyd - I lived out by Center Grove. I had a blue & white '56 Chevy, then a yellow '55, then a black '58 - all dogs! Then I finally got a '60 Pontiac with the old style 4-speed Hydramatic; it was wicked fast off the line which made it great for stoplight-to-stoplight or the eighth mile, but ran out of pull on the top end. Fun car though. Grahm Road was the local draggin' place.

We used to see Bob Glidden at Jerry's occasionally in his '63 Galaxie 427 before he became a professional racer. What did your brother drive?

 

We cruised Park Ave in Mansfield Ohio we had some sreet racing would happen later at night especially during Bike week at Mid Ohio.We also would cruise hamburger hill in Wooster Ohio my dad asked me why we cruised in Wooster he said "All the wild women ran around there when he was young" I said "Dad all the wild women have daughters now".

 

Me too. Draggin' Main, over and over again. Only in a '57 Merc or a Dodge Dart, or a chopped 28 A sedan. We listened to KOMA from OKC. Cruised from the A & W on Elizabeth to the A & W on Prairie. Best time of my life.

 

Woodward Avenue. Birmingham down to 10 Mile and back north again!

 

6th Avenue in Tacoma, WA from Highland Hill to Frisko Freeze.

I got my license in '68. Cruisin' really died down from when I used to ride my bike to Don's Drive In. My first car was a '55 Dodge Royal Lancer Custom



with a HEMI



Then I got a '67 Dodge Dart GT with HP 273 4 speed.



Yes I had dreams of supercharging it.

Started at Don's Drive In on Main St to Big Boy on Woodville to McD's on Woodville and back to Don's. Occasionally we would venture to the two White Huts on sylvania Ave or out to Point Place Big Boy.
