“There’s no place like home.”
Michigan, the “Motor City” – home to hundreds of car shows and cruises throughout the year.
Like nowhere else in the entire World, we have more than any State in the Country!
[ don’t believe us? Look at this huge list: Michigan automobile events of cruises and shows! and that’s just mainly SouthEastern Michigan events! There’s many more in Mid-Michigan and on the West side of the State!]
Saturday, August 17, 2024, the biggest auto event anywhere, where a million vehicles show up, along with a billion people!
(ok, perhaps not THAT many, but A LOT!)
The weather had scattered showers before 4PM, but after that, no rain whatsoever.
Woodward Avenue was packed, as per the norm (“Woodward Dream Crawl”).
The traffic moved along (albeit slowly, for the most part), which makes for excellent opportunity to take photos!
We saw a handful of Turbo Regals (all Buick Grand Nationals), but plenty other GM G-bodies and A-bodies.
Then there’s all the fun stuff (Batmobile, Green Acres truck, the Cosmic Cruise van, the Western Flyer – a little red wagon on wheels!, race cars, Deloreans, rare sports cars, etc., etc., etc.!)
And of course, strange and weird stuff too!
What a great day to be (alive) and on Woodward Avenue!

There’s a bunch of car shows next weekend, including the awesome Hines Drive Cruise, which is where we’ll be attending.
