Default First cruise night of 2013, some snaps

Well, we got through another winter, first cruise night of 2013!
Low seventies and not a cloud in the sky, dusted off the old crocks and got'em out, and their cars too
Not bad, about 200 cars and a bunch of Vettes, a good start.

A few quick snaps.





















Bet you never saw one of these before.

Love that black Challenger there also. I always wanted one of those in Plumb Crazy.

The guy wasn't around to ask him about how or why he built it, I assume he started with a '67~'69 vert shell and then added the '70 front clip, quarters, dash and interior.

After all that work though I think I would have gone with maybe a more exciting color to better show it off.
Never understood why Chrysler never built these it looked so right...

Oh no. the color is perfect. just stock enough for the "experts" to walk by and tell their buddies just exactly what the car is (without actually having a clue).
Rev: tongue in cheek my friend. it was tongue in cheek.
