"Mustang Mike's"
Saint Cloud Thursday Nite Cruise-In

In the Wal-Mart Parking Lot
Next to the Sonic Drive-In
Saint Cloud, Florida

 

January 18th

It cleared of nicely, it was to cool off as the night wears on. "Mustang Mike" was nearly setup by the time we arrived at 4:15. There were  a dozen or so cars before 5:00. Bob in his '36 Ford parked up next to the trailer so that he would be closer to his car while he assisted with the tickets. Tony & Marianne were the first to arrive after us. Jeff & Martha brought out their '55 Ford that he has been working on for more than 2 years, great Custom. Tommy & Paul parked next to him. As always we had everything from a '23 T-Bucket to Bob Butler's SSR.

Tom & Edna brought the Trophy that we took as a group last Sunday at Renninger's in their 8 door Greenbrier. Ed & Evelyn were out in their '63 Corvair Convertible, Bo was in his '64 and we were in our '61 Coupe. Randy was parked next to Chuck's T-Bucket in his '66 Ford "Butch". Steve and his folks were out in the deVille. It is sure nice to see most of the regulars out on such a great night. John in his '56 Ford Custom remarked, "Looks like a Chevy night". There were just so many '55 and '56 Chevys to look at. Including Gary & Wanda in their '55, "Remember When".

Lot's of talk about making our way to Gartlits at the end of the month. It should be a good time. See Tony to sign up. Marianne DeGennaro did the prize shopping, great job, once again.

There were nearly 100 cars in the lot, even a few we have never seen. The 50/50 was at $121.00, Hank Horn, Cruiser # 749 had the winning ticket, he donated $10 back to this newsletter. Thank You. The "Cruise-A-Matic" would have gone home with Jeff & Connie Powers, #205 if they would have been out tonight. Next week it rolls up to $150.

"Cruiser of the Week" went home with Jeff & Martha Burch, Cruiser #55 in their '55 Ford.

Tony DeBlasio was awarded his Plaque for the 2006 Cruiser of the Year Award sponsored by "Mustang Mike". He was surprised, he figured it was just the award from the Cruise-In News.

Here are a few Photos.


congratulations to the winners and a big Thank You to all that came out tonight. See you all "Out There!"
