This Saturday marks the first big cruise for the year in the Flint area. A&W in nearby Flushing hosts a cruise every third Sat during the summer months. It's hosted by a great group of rodders known as The Michigan Cruisers. All vehicles pre 1972 are welcome thru the gate but all spectators will have access to good parking. Any HAMBERs that show look me up....I'll probably have Frankie and Jenny with me in the wagon.
The weather is supposed to be nice, I should have the Buick there. I coulnt agree more, the Michigan Cruisers are a great bunch of guys... including those Purdy characters.
In the WAGON??? What'd ya break on the bucket now??? And just to reiterate what's been said, this is a good cruise put on by good people...
thanks for the post guys. this should be a great day. the weather looks perfect. should pull about 400 cars as always. check us out on the news at 5:00 or 5:30 channel 5. i think its also on at noon today. hope to see some new faces. thanks again. also the cruise starts at 5:00.
i almost forgot to ask the nightmares if they would like to loan a club plate to the cruisers. we would like to display it in the a&w. if for some reason the plates ever get taken down you will get it back, but this is our 20th year at the a&w so hopefuly it will be up a long time. we always like to have other clubs join in on the fun. if you would like to do this let me know.or bring a plate saturday.
I have one I can donate to the cause... It'll probably be a little while 'til I have another one of my rides on the road, so I'll just order more plates then...
Haven't even touched it... I'm gonna try to get the seats ripped out of it and hose it out this weekend though... the dead rac**** "ooze" is starting to get a little funky on these warmer days we've had!
This is a big one. A good night (good weather, etc) brings 500+ cars. Being the 1st, 400 will be good enuff. See ya there!!
Frank got his wife's street rod fired up today and I'm getting my c-dan out of hock tomorrow morning so we should be there. I guess I need to get my Nightmares club plaque mounted pronto or I won't be able to park in the Nightmares special reserved area
OH NOOO! we dont let the nightmares group together. its too dangerous. i like to keep them singled out for safety.but it will be great to see all of you .
well i got home about a hour ago. the place was packed at least 500 cars. it was fun seein everybody including tom (hot rod to hells dad) he is doin great. flatheadpete said he took a **** load of pics to post. i think jdubbya got a couple good bites on the buick also his dads new ride is really nice .fuelpump and frank made it down that was cool. well ill stop here and leave some for the others to tell.. it was a great day
Yep... the A&W show's always a good time... I just need to get there a little earlier next time... I got there, talked to a bunch of people that swarmed my car, made a quick lap around the place, went in for dinner, came out, and everybody was gone! The fam all had a good time too. Thanks for putting this show on man...
It must be nice to have a decent cruise night. Around here were lucky to have more than 20 cars show up and most of them are billet infested ****.
Ok, Picture this... Having a converstion with Joe and Pete, when You start to hear a loud rumble. Long before you see it you can hear and feel it. You wonder what the hell makes so much noise, then around the corner pulls.... "PLAN B" Before steve even shut off the engine he was swarmed with people and some dude cramming registration forms down his throat. Saw the car at autorama but WAY COOLER to see run.
Definately a great turn out, was great to see the bunch of you yahoos. It was great to see Tom, without his wheels, and Frank, Rich and their better halves. Sure made for a good kick-off to the cruising season. -Joe
It was a fun night in Flushing that's for sure. A great turn out of cars. It was just nice to sit there with and enjoy the enjoy the sites ans sounds of a car of cruise night.... including the distant sound of gun fire from Flint Seriously it was a good time. Sorry I missed HRTH's dad though. I guess they got there late and we left early.
