Didn't make it tonight Bruce, but feel like I was there, thanks. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif Did you get a look at the big blue fast-back Chevy - a 1967 (its in the background of the "L88 vette"). Saw it last week. Way cool car. Very original looking SS with 50K+ miles, 427/385 HP with console 4 speed AND air. What a cool combo. Big Chevy guys will be able to ID model with portion of car seen in "L88" picture. Owner claims (mini poster) it is very rare with this combo - I don't doubt it. Looking forward to talking to owner - looks like he is exercising it regularly now.

[Xplantdad]

Okay...so how many cruises have FUNNY CARS at them?? A Caddilac Seville Funny Car, no less...

Tom and Rob..don't answer that!

I think I missed that car??? I can barely see it in the background...I must be losing my touch...

It was such a great evening out tonight...I'm liking that it's cooling down...!

I've seen that car before. While nice, the production figures he quotes do not exist.

Here's some more pics I took a few months ago. . . . damn! Says they're too big (280kb is big?)

Thanks for the compliments...I just totally enjoy the cars.

The SS is a 409 car. The GTO is a two-tone car.

The most popular of the roller coasters always had three trains running so that the wait would not be too long.
