Breakdowns do happen



Just get them off the road any way possible

Neal, the bucket list thread has the info you want. Pg18...

since i don't have triple A or senior discount, Marriott wanted $109.00 plus tax. on travelocity, it got 4 out 5 on the reviews and looking at the map, is on a busier street.

Candlewood Suite wanted $76.00 including tax, for a suit on a quieter street, 5 out of 5 on the reviews.

I booked Aug 16-18 at Candlewood.

We have reservations at both places

Yeah Mine too

Tim, you should come over in 2012. Wyoming isn't that far







They used to bring the free drinks to the car...



...now you have to get them yourself. Still alcohol free



Cruisin conditions don't allow for the best fuel mileage

This is a little hillbillyish





Heading into "the tunnel" on Woodward



I am at a loss



This '77 is very sharp

It had been a great day until the storm rolled in. Thank God it wasn't any worse than it was

[redragtop]

From this...(notice tall signage, tents, people, etc.)



...to this (lack of signage and most everything else)



This all happened in a matter of minutes...very lucky no one was seriously hurt






Things were quickly covered and secured...









...and then loaded up





Elsewhere,

Ok,Thats not going to happen next year.Right......

No guarantees, but this was quite the freaky weather and I don't think it will happen again





Ex? Cherry Bomb sighting



They did shut down some of the side roads...



...and even Woodward for a while (which was very strange)







But this is Detroit and Big Daddy says it is time to cruise again



Just watch out for storm damage

[redragtop]

Vintage garage...









The TV news crews wont have to wait long for the cruisers to return

[redragtop]

So what is up with this...?

[redragtop]

Absolutely gorgeous Fairlane out of Mid-Michigan. Owned by a nice couple Bill and Diane. This is the first time I have seen it in paint. It runs even better than it looks



Another Corvair with the engine transplanted to the "correct" end



I really like the stinger hood



Remember...Burnouts are NOT allowed on Woodward...



...but the crowds sure do love them



And this concludes our photo journey of the 2011 Woodward Dream Cruise. I hope everybody enjoyed viewing the pics as much as I enjoyed posting them. Be sure to check out the Woodward Bucket List thread and make plans to join us in 2012.

I may start to post some pics from previous years if that is OK
