Default Woodwad Ave. Last Night

With the mid-70 degree weather yesterday, there were LOTS of muscle cars (and plenty of old Vettes) on Detroit's famous cruising strip, Woodward Ave. Many parking lots were filling up with classic cars with their hoods up yesterday evening. I pulled into a lot a 13 Mile and Woodward and there were probably another 50 cars already there (including a 63 convertible and a 63 split window). Love this time of year.

Woodward Ave. is a very cool place to see nice cars. This is the Motor City and cars are God ! When the weather is nice you will see an amazing amount of nice cars where ever you go. I had my 1973 convertible out today and got dozens of waves, thumbs up and smiles. Metro Detroit loves cars !!

Here in Milwaukee the ***** (local police) have basically outlawed cruising. They have set up no U turn signs and sit and wait for anyone who passes by too many times and tickets are written. I'm moving to Austin TX as soon as I can afford to. This city is nuts.

That's funny. I moved from Appleton, WI to Austin one and a half years ago.

And I agree. Texas is better. :)

Woodward Ave. is very cool :thumbs: To me, Metro Detroit is THE place for cruising. You can go out any night of the week and find a car show or cruise-in somewhere. I just got new cragars on mine Saturday so naturally, I had to go try them out. :yesnod:
