It was a car guys wet dream down there! Anyone that has been there before knows exactly what I am talking about. There was pretty much everything imaginable there, from a '35 Auburn Boattail Speedster, to a '09 Corvette ZR1, to a stretched '30s ford coupe, to a Caterham Super 7 and everything in between. Woodward Ave. stretches from Detroit to Pontiac and I believe is about 14 miles long where the cruise is and no less then three lanes wide per side with most of it packed bumper to bumper only creeping along.

ON WITH THE PICS!!!!

VERY unusual Camaro here. What is so weird about it you ask??? How about a 6.5 turbo diesel engine swap?

LOVE the license plate

Dang, my goal was to get a Corvette when I turn 25. I was aiming to get a C5 but now that wonderful picture of the white C4 is starting to change my mind...

Good pictures, nice motion blur on some of them.

They do not look very comfortable in that Caterham :lol:

And... is that an Auburn Boattail? My god, that's a sexy car...

Man, I wish I could have gone up there this year... but things suck right now, financially speaking... Next year, for sure...

D-max would have been a better swap for that camaro, lol.

Cody, C4's aren't good for tall-ish people. I'm 6'6" and have to tilt my head or crouch, plus it's really tight inside.

Great pics Ryan!!!
