Twilight Cruise In

Once a month at the Wally Park's NHRA Motorsports Museum they have a cruise in. We have lived out here going on 13 years now and I have only  been to this twice now. One of the best things about this cruise in.. you get free admission to the museum.

There are of course the usual suspects like this beautiful Ford Fairlane retractable hardtop. I believe this one was a 1957. This kind of feature has actually come back in style these days where there are a few new vehicles with retractable hard tops. It is kind of unique for a cruise in, as cars come and go instead of just staying there to the end.

Ohhh a 1970s era Plymouth Ruster....  LOL in the Cleveland area in the 70s there were a lot of issues with rust on cars. The salt used on the roads in the winter just ate at cars. I had a 1972 Duster that within 13 months had large areas of rust on it. There are of course hot rods here also. The NHRA museum was all changed around from the last time I was in it. They had displays on cars featured in HOT ROD magazine. I started reading HOT ROD magazine when I was 14 and there was one or two cars I recognized.
