The Winchester Drive-in cruise was great |
It was sold to a guy in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1993, then to the man in Pennsylvania in 1997. It is a four-door BelAir with a Blue-Flame 140, three speed "Syncromesh" transmission on the column, pushbutton radio that works, and a number of other options including emergency brake warning light, back-up light kit, accessory bumper guards and tissue dispenser. He drove the car to the Winchester Drive-In cruise and showed it off to all interested parties.

Late Great Chevy Club of Oklahoma City cars bolstered the turnout for this year's cruise to the Winchester Drive-in. One of their members was surprised with a birthday cake and a very off-key rendition of happy birthday. Photo by Keith Marang Photo by Keith Marang Photo by Keith Marang The turnout for this year's Winchester Drive-in cruise was quite good. Too bad the first movie, Romeo Must die, was such a turkey. Shakespeare is probably turning over in his grave for the poor rendition of the Romeo and Juliet theme. Space Cowboys was OK as the second movie. Marilyn and Charles left before the third movie (Perfect Storm) but word has it that it was worth the wait. Next year, with publicity, maybe we can really get a crowd interested in this event.
