End Of Summer :(

End Of Summer :(


In Prescott AZ, which is near me, once a month on summer Friday nights there is a car Cruise In. I generally don't go because the cruising car I currently have, a 1955 Ford Customline, isn't ready yet. It's an hour drive and the ole girl needs more hands on lovin. It is also what my dad drove me and the neighborhood kids to school in.



Tonight is the last one for this year and for Cruise Nights and a local radio station broadcasts from the cruise and they play tunes from the 50s and 60s. Many of the songs we really don't get to hear otherwise around here - they usually play songs from the 70s - 90s. It is heavy on Cruisin songs like: Lil Deuce Coupe, Little GTO, Hot Rod Lincoln, and others like Booker T and the MGs – Green Onions, Poison Ivy – The Coasters, and Chris Montez – Let’s Dance.

There is always one of the few songs I would ever dare to karaoke – “Mack the Knife” – I can do a pretty good Bobby Darin. One of the few songs I liked and my parents liked.

I cruised Van Nuys Blvd back in the 70s when I had my 1964 Impala SS – it had been my grandfather’s car. Within the first hour of getting it I had my first of many speeding tickets. Within the first month I had a new engine (a Traco Engineering 327 with an Offenhauser 3x2 intake) in it and I had lightened it by 700 pounds. For Cruise Night I would mix 5 gallons of Av Gas with 5 of 76 Premium. Outwardly it looked pretty much stock and I would choose off Camaros for $100 a run. They thought I was just an old stock heavy grandpa’s car. Heh, heh, heh.

We would take my winnings and eat at the Bob’s Big Boy Drive In (gone now) and listened to the one and only Wolfman Jack back then.

After the cruise my g/f and I would drive up to Mulholland Dr. and “watch the submarine races”. Them was the good ole days.

    I love those classic American cars. Ours were kind of boring.
Oh I love British cars I've had several and raced an MGB for a while. I'm kinda looking for a B or a TR6 - as if I need another car.

    Back in the late 80's I found a 55 Ford F100 in a field in OKC and towed it away for $100. The tow back to Dallas was an event. I hadn't thought of Wolfman Jack in years.
In the late 70s I had a black 57 F100 (the squared off front. Then in the early 80s I had a 56 F100 (bull-nose).

Did you guys get the Wolfman Jack program out of Mexico there?

I knew of Woodward it is similarly famous as Van Nuys was.

    I think you should go Red as it sounds like an amazing night, and what a great car. I love old cars like this and they are always having car shows here, not that I get to go.

    And I would love to hear you sing Mack The Knife, its actually in my music library here on my computer. Oh those songs are definitely the all time best in my book as that's when music really meant something.

    What great old days you had and winning the money was a PLUS, as Bob's Big Boy wow I remember going to them they just don't have them around anymore. Oh those were the good old days indeed my friend, and you should enjoy them every chance you get..
P.S. I've read there are still a few Bob's Big Boy in Cali I loved their burgers and malts.

    in 90's, my ex was in drag racing (stock car) and he used to do a lot of restoration on classic muscle cars...oh I miss that...we used to go Cruise In, too...that was a good place to swap parts and get to know other people...
Yeah I miss it too. Living in a small town in a rural area there aren't many things like that going on

    R3 sounds like old times, I had a 1960 chevy 348 4 speed, I pulled out of the local burger joint one Sat evening about 9 or 10 , made a 270 in the middle of the 4 lane and went across town, about 2 miles, as I pulled in to the Dairy Queen , here come the Police chief, asked me what all the fuss was, I tried to tell him that I had stepped in some catsup ( ketchup to some) and my foot slipped off the clutch. He looked kinda dismayed and replied but did you have to leave tire tracks for 2 blocks, cost me 50 dollars and 30 days suspension of my driving privileges... long time ago, we drive a bit better now days, but still like the good ole music..
I lived in L.A. and the cops around my area knew my car pretty well so I was followed a lot. But I usually got caught when a cop was hiding in an unexpected place. I could talk my way out since I was usually at least 20 mph over the limit.

Tonight was the last one for this year. If I can scrape up the cash and some decent parts I might be able to get the Ford to cruise nights next summer.
