Cruise to the Scenic

[HWYCRZR]

Small town about an hour away from me (at 70 Mph) had a cruise in night tonight. They had a Smoky and the Bandit theme with a few T/As and Pontiac cop cars. The theater was playing the movie as well. The Scenic Theater is the oldest continuous running theater in ND. The theater was able to upgrade to digital after a town fundraiser.

The drive down. It was a beautiful afternoon, sunny and about 72 degrees.

I drove through the Sandhills aka Sheyenne National Grasslands.

Lining up for parking

Parked by another Mopar.

My favorite, a 62 Dodge Polara 500. Beautiful car.

Other Mopar’s. Maybe a couple of other shot slipped in. 180 that had registered there.

I posted this ‘67 Imperial in July, but the guy also has a triple black ‘64 300 convertible for sale. He has the 300 posted online somewhere.

‘67 Imperial

‘64 300. 63,000 miles. Was an AZ car. Supposedly went through Barrett Jackson (8 years ago?) and end up in South Dakota. This guy has had it in ND for 4 years. He wants in the $30’s for it.
1 older re-paint.

The ride home collecting bugs. Had a Hellcat come cruising by me. I was doing about 75 and he came flying by. You gotta love the straight open roads in ND. You can easily cover 65 miles in about an hour on the two lanes.

Thanks for the pics, those were great. I really liked that 300, same year as my NY. It reminded me of what mine is supposed to somewhat look like. You should do a before and after shot of now and in February. Never been to ND, but I'm willing to bet those roads will look a tad different.

 

[HWYCRZR]

Yes, February will be a different story on these roads. I like going to some of these smaller town events. You see many different cars every time. It is amazing what some of the farmers have squirreled away in their sheds. The long winters make for some good projects.

Post pics of the sheds too. At the risk of sounding like a weirdo, I dig a nice barn/shed/man cave. So many here in New England. Makes me so jealous given that I'm operating out of a 1 car garage in which my NY soaks up every last bit of space, with just enough room for my MIG welder.

Great looking show.

Is this a poor man's convertible?

Drivers door even in the back seat.
