Just curious if anyone else has the Saturday night hot rod drive in shows
in their area ? ( lack of a better term )
We have the usual hot rod cruise nights here in San Diego throughout the
year. However, during the summmer we have a Thursday night cruise that
place in old La Mesa - lots of restaurtants and antique stores. The theme
is 50's but it is open to any vintage autos. I've seen everything from
Model T Fords to Cobras. Our TR club holds our August meeting at this
cruise. We have quite a showing and park our LBC's in front of an English
merchandise store. It's one of our most popular club activities.
We also had the biggest showing of LBCs yet! There a '72 TR6, a Spitfire
1500, my TR250, another TR250, a Bugeye Sprite, a Sunbeam Alpine, and a
right hand drive Mini show up. There was also a MG Midget with a 350
chevy in it
Didn't you mean to say that is was a 350 Chevvy with a MG Midget wrapped
around it?!?
It was really pretty neat watching all the long looks the Mini was
getting, and standing off to the side and listening to the really funny
comments, especially when the lookers realized that the steering wheel
was on the 'wrong side'.
I beg your pardon, the steering wheel is on the 'correct side'. ;-)
