I will be there. I used to cruise 4th street in San Rafael in the mid '70's and then Van Nuys in 1980 when I moved down to LA. Had a '69 Chevelle. Too much fun and so many great memories. I will look for you Reid in that '72 beauty. Reid, do you ever make it out to Super Car Sunday in Calabasas (Valley Circle and the 101) in the Von's Mall P-lot? Not many C3's there, but lots of great cars and great C1's and C2's. It's the last Sunday of every month.
Best to the board.

La Mesa Ca (San Diego area) Every Thursday night 6 to 9 they park hot cars (mostly custom rods) along the street and you can walk, eat and talk while looking at all of the rods.  It goes on through out the summer so I do not think it has started yet but will soon.  If you have a vacation in San Diego make sure you include a Thursday night in La Mesa.  It is run by the Over The Hill Gang.  You want to see some of the cars look at the web site.  I know they are not Vetts but when mine is running I will bring it down to the Thursday gathering.



If anyone wants to find out when it starts

[QUOTE=KDADDY79]Hey Reid,
That sounds like it'll be great!
The photo made me think of the movie "American Graffiti".
Keep us posted on this.

Being from the east coast, I'd love to get a taste of the Ca hot rod history and experience (although we have a ton of it here too!!)

The Woodward Cruise is still alive and kicking in the suburbs north of Detroit.  It may not be three lanes each direction but it IS 2 lanes each direction and stretches for about 12 miles...bumper to bumper!  People plan a year in advance just to get parking for this cruise.  And the participants are from all over the world as well.  Cruising is one thing, sitting in traffic is another!  I prefer to do my "cruising" on the open road with the wind in the cabin and the sun on my face.  For Woodward I drive the family car and walk (and drool sometimes) and eat and talk and watch, and usually end up with whiplash, my head never stops turning.
