Cruise Night Pics - Today, Millis, MA

Post by RRoller123 »

Here are a few pics from tonight's Cruise Night in Millis Mass, at Gold's Gym on Rt 109. There were a few interesting things; a fellow brought a miniature hot rod that was made as a child's car, absolutely amazing piece! There was a really nice Ferrari, and my friend Art brought his '67 Shelby GT350 Mustang. It has been recently restored (for the second time) and has been written up a few times in the various car trade magazines. Wonderful machine. And near the end of the night my wife spotted this little admirer taking a picture of the Spider. What a hoot.

Here is Art and his Shelby:

And this cool little child's hot rod:

very cool. many years ago, i ran on to a machinist that was building a 1/10 scale bucket-T. He actually machined the miniture V8, crank and all. said it took 4 tries at the crank to get the thing to run right. that was the only thing that didnt shrink ok.

I didn't see this one run, but it was fully functional, and there was a 10 year old standing nearby with a big cheshire cat grin on his face! <{:^)

There was a fellow who showed up with a new Ferrari, and usually my friend with a nice Pantera comes, but I am almost always the only Fiat, and usually only a couple of Italian cars, if that. They were sure all surprised when Don came down from Hamilton MA and we had 2 Spiders there a few weeks ago!

If it's Italian iron you want, come to the Tutto Italiano show Sunday, August 5 at the Larz Anderson Park in Brookline. Google it. They'll be lots of Fiats there, too, including mine.

Yeah I will be there too, and also at "Cars And Coffee" at the Larz Museum on Saturday, July 28th at 7:00 A.M.
I am told it is a really nice casual take, with an emphasis on foreign cars. In at 7:00 a.m. out by 10:00 a.m. to have the rest of the day free.
