Sunday Cruise Fever

Rest In Piece, Don Crosby…

Don Crosby, the owner of a 1954 Mercury Sun Valley coupe which we have featured both here and in the book, “Class of 2009,” recently passed away. Don was a devoted member of the cruising community, being a regular sight at the Pony Corral’s cruise nights. He could also be found at most car shows [...] Related posts:

Cruisin’ for Cheo

And it’s been a week that our latest set of photos has been sitting on an external hard drive waiting to go online. Moral of the story? I’m going to [...] Related posts:

How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Slushbox

Jordan — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 04:12:54 +0000

The tachometer’s spindly red needle climbed steadily towards the right, dropped back to a safe (and fuel efficient) number, and began climbing again. As I mashed the pedal harder, the needle suddenly shot back towards the redline, in concert with the screaming of the little car’s four-banger engine. The glowing plastic piece repeated the [...] Related posts:

Daily Roddin’: ’51 Mercury Lead Sled

Jordan — Thu, 14 Jul 2011 05:00:35 +0000

Old Mercurys are beautiful, and a great build like this just makes it better. And while most people in our community insist that only 2-doors make for truly righteous rods, the owner of this beastly led sled simply doesn’t care.

Kanata Cruise Night @ Hazeldean Mall 07-12-11

Jordan — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 02:47:17 +0000

For the first time in three years, I finally made it to the Kanata cruise night at Hazeldean Mall. For me, it was a huge improvement over the first one since (a) it wasn’t raining, and (b) I didn’t get rear ended on the way home. Tonight’s show was both eclectic and awesome, with rides [...] Related posts:

Jordan — Sun, 10 Jul 2011 06:27:39 +0000

As promised, tonight was the scene of the Carling Avenue Cruise Night at Monkey Joe’s. There was a great turnout, with everything from new Corvette ZR-1′s to mild custom beetles like the one above. I would elaborate on how awesome the show was, but you would probably rather just see the photos: Related posts:Daily [...] Related posts:

Kemptville Cruise Night – July 8th, 2011

Jordan — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 03:57:18 +0000

If you don’t know Kemptville, you don’t know the Highway 43 Car Club cruise night. Which explains how I got there just in time for everyone to leave. Thankfully, a few attendants were still around when I finally found the &%$#@! Food Basics parking lot. Not missing my exit off Highway 416 would probably have [...] Related posts:
