Cool :dude:

I assume it's like the classic or old fashioned car shows/drive in? Everyone drives in and opens their hoods so that others can admire their vehicles?

We have an old diner near by that has classic car night. You can order burgers and shakes and listen to 50's-60's music. Walk around and meet people and check out their cool cars.

We have a few places around here that do that.
Cubby's BBQ in Hackensack is the best known spot.

This show is a bit different.

It's a 3 day thing in Sea Bright NJ that they've had for the past nine summers. It's called The Shore Thing.

Friday night there's a "light up show" where all of the PTs that have neon light kits show their stuff.

Saturday is the main show and the town's Community Day.
We have a breakfast and then take over the municipal parking lot to show our Cruisers. So far there'll be about 50 entries. Some of them are pretty tricked out and modified.....and some are mostly stock like mine.
There's also a street fair, a flea market, music, food vendors, an open beach, Surf Fishing, enclosed playground for the kids, Kite Flying, beach volleyball courts, RC Car Racing, Sand Sculpture contest on the beach, and Fire Trucks on display.
At 4pm the local Fire Fighters Company has it's fire engines escort us on aparade up to the Sandy Hook Lighthouse and back, and then they host a catered dinner at the firehouse. There's door prizes, goodie bags, Chinese auction, and an awards ceremony with trophies to the best-in-class Cruisers.

Sunday we meet for breakfast and then have a "Poker Rally" to a bunch of the local attractions and shops, scenic spots, lighthouses, etc.

And then we have a group hug and head home.

 
Great car Jim. I have always loved the look of them.

The show is on Sept 18 down at the Jersey shore. I joined a PT club and I'll be there with about 50 other PT owners at the Shore Thing 2010. It should be a blast!


I just got back a while ago.
I went down Saturday morning for the show and activities...stayed overnight, and participated in the today's events.

Yesterday there was the show, music, door prizes, a Chinese auction, a flea market, dinner, a tailgate party at the motel afterwards, etc.
.....and then today was the sightseeing ride combined with a "poker rally". We got a playing card at each stop and then got prizes for the hands.
I think they gave out prizes to everyone.

Just as I figured....it was a blast!!!!

A great time was had by all....good people.....good food....good activities.
All was good!!

I'm exhausted....well tanned....and in need of a good night's sleep.
It's good to be home and see the family, dogs and bunnies ("Where ya been, Daddy??)


Here's a video of us all leaving for the beach cruise after the show....
