8/30/08: brunswick cruise pix (DUW)

[a_d_a_m]

tony & karen + their grandkids showed up at my house a bit after 3pm and we started the journey. here's a couple 'in-transit' pictures that came out like crap:

after we got to the joint, i noticed an AMC hornet pulling in. i'm a big AMC fan, and this hornet SST was right up my alley:

the dude owns 4 hornets, one of which is a pro-street car. RAD! wish he woulda brought it, but this car wasn't slow by ANY means.

L-R: tony's '03 'rauder, my '02 MGM, and pat's 99(?right?) P71 which is an ex-cleveland car. he said he isn't gonna post much until he gets it done, but apparently there's a T-5 conversion in his car's future:

pat's the one in the black shirt, leaning on the car:

i made up a little information sheet about my car. of course, since it's mostly stock, i had to fill half the page with a picture. nonetheless, i caught a few people reading it and they seemed into the car. but this picture...hell, i've got at least 10 pictures of my car this exact angle. note to self: STOP.

tony's car (the empty spots were due to us saving room for other panthers):

and of course, the P71's stole the show from the 2 mercury representatives:

then, we headed over to annabelle's diner on the other side of town. going through downtown cleveland was a hell of a lot of fun, and i was even able to get a couple motion shots that woulda been cooler if i had a good camera or any skill whatsoever. or, you know, if i wasn't holding the camera out the window, not aiming, and driving at the same time...

i didn't take any pictures at the annabelle's stop that were worth posting...hell, most of these were garbage! we also hit up another cruise which was rather uneventful and for some reason my pictures all came out blurry.

You have to come over and show her how to upload. Another thing, we need to decide on what we are going to do on the weekend of the 13,14. We are all trying to think of some outdoor activity for us to terrorize. takedown, you can come join us anytime you want, as can anyone else. We just have a lot of fun, show off our cars,& raise hell. BTW does everyone see the S/C on the Cobra, which carries a real '65 title.

[a_d_a_m]

well, i am off every night this week, so whenever nobody needs the computer for awhile just tell her to call me.

[mpearce]

Jeez,

I'll have to get out to Carney's more often now. Didn't know you and Trash rolled down there this past weekend. Give me a buzz next time.
