we found Arby’s and there were a bunch of cruisers there! There were about 30 or so cars by the time we left and some we haven’t seen before. The blue GTO was very nice and the yellow ’35 Chevy 5w coupe was new to us. The ’65 Buick brought back some memories for me, I used to be a mechanic in a Buick dealership from ’63-’66 in Riverside, CA. I had worked on quite a few of those little Buicks. There were a lot of Buicks at the cruise, what’s up with that? But the neatest vehicle that came through was the LaFrance fire truck. I didn’t get a chance to talk to the owner but check out the motor! Three cylinders, two pistons per cyl, six spark plugs per cyl, one distributor with twelve plug wires and a magneto with six plug wires! I got to hear the thing run the next day at a show, check out my u-tube page at 502SizeMatters. We talked to Papa John about the show the next day and listened to Steve talk about his busy day that culminated in recovering the club's music trailer that had been towed from the cruise lot by an overzealous towing company, grin. The PW Cruisers always treat us like they are truly glad to see us, it’s a nice cruise with nice people but I don’t think we will fight the traffic every Friday night to go there. Once in a while is ok though and if you are near Potomac Mills in Woodbridge, VA on Friday night and you want to see some cool cars and meet some nice people check out their cruise.. ..Remember it’s real close to Arby’s. hehehe
