We here in the Southwest have to drive ours year 'round and never have enough time to properly maintain them. Now there's a glass half full/half empty view of things....... ?

mrwrstory Posted March 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Seriously,...those of us in the South and particularly the Southwest are blessed with the best weather a car nut could want. I am originally from Detroit and grew up with the seasons' challenges as the norm. We made the most of the cold or snow or rain or the heat because it was there. And, there was no complaint. The mostly mild weather here in SoCal are a gift that I acknowledge everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrwrstory Posted May 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 I really do have more friends than the blokes shown in these pics. Just that they are always up for a morning breakfast and cruise. And,....I'm always struck with the pleasure of viewing the world framed, or better yet focused through the aperture of my car's windshield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Hiebert Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Every summer, Island Falls, ME (pop. @ 800) hosts a "Summerfest", wherein a couple of local businesses host a cruise-in. Ostensibly for our car club, but all are welcome. They have a BBQ, music, and general good time to kick off the town's Summerfest weekend, which is the last weekend in July. A pretty good to-do for such a small town. Club members staging in Houlton for the 30-mile trip to Island Falls. The "hard luck" trophy went to the owner of that Galaxie convertible, he lost a hubcap on the way down that we couldn't find. A first for our Dodge - "zipping" down an Interstate on its own (...any Interstate). I-95, and yes, for those who have ever been on I-95, this road with one car between me and the horizon is the same I-95 with almost 24/7 bumper-to-bumper traffic just about any other place on the eastern seaboard. The club has the slowest car lead on cruises, turned out to be us this trip, but despite leaking quite a bit of oil, the ol' girl hummed along pretty good. A couple general views of the cars in attendance. 25 in all, which I think is pretty good for such a small venue. Just a few Mopar products, our Dodge, a '36 Dodge sedan, and the Polara above. That '46 Dodge truck is on a GM 3/4 ton frame & drive train, it's the guy's daily driver/work truck. And there was a '32 Plymouth coupe hot-rod with a Chevrolet engine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodFitch Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Since the topic is "from the driver's seat" and since I just got a setup I am comfortable with posting new videos to, here is some footage from last march that might be of interest: https://video.fitchfamily.org/videos/watch/0a9fd5e9-0501-4310-8981-d7370e2b4d4f 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldodge41 Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 $2.79 was on Saturday 10/19/19 and is about average right now. I actually paid $2.59 about .5 mile from where this picture was taken, but I saw another station @ $2.89. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
