Default cruise-in today

just checked the spanish springs webcam and it looks like the square is set to receive today's auto entourage. i think the 'entry parade' starts around 3pm-ish - wish ya could see more cars than just the ones that enter by margaritaville republic...but that's pretty good for getting the feeling that you are almost there!

Hi Bill,
Are all the vehicles vintage and modified or are there stock exotics also? Next year we hope to be there on a more regular basis. ( I hope? )
Thanks

Lot's of cool stuff. How about a 1968 Corvair with a small block Chevy in the back seat running Weber carbs. Not something you see every day. Or how about the mint Jag XKE, I think was a 66 or 68. Super clean from one end to the other. The 57 Chevy's were out in force and all super clean.

For me the top ride has to be the all original 1966 Chevy Biscayne two door with a 396 / 425 hp 4 speed. Original owner. For you racers out there this was something you would want to take out a rotate the tires. all I could think of when looking at this car was B/S and the Indy Nationals.
