    Cruisin the Coast 2011

    Two big events happen where I live in October. One is my birthday and the other is "Cruisin the Coast". Every year the Mississippi Gulf Coast has "Cruisin the Coast" where thousands of old cars come for a week and set up in the different cities for viewing and also Cruz along the beach showing off their cars. This year we had between five and six thousand show up along with many more thousands of spectators. If you like old cars I have posted five here with a link to my website. if you are interested the link will take you right to the cars gallery and I invite you to view the rest of the galleries on my site also. The streets were busy and the cars were close together but I did manage to get some fair shots, Jeff

    The 55 looks like the one I had right after High School.
    But mine wasn't that shinny.
    Very nice shots

    Be sure and check out the additional cars in my "Cruisin the Coast 2011" gallery on my website. There are a total of 78 pictures of cars in the gallery. Cars are required to be at least 25 years old to participate with a few exceptions. If you like old cars I think it will be worth you time to check out the rest of the cars in my gallery, Jeff

    Thanks for sharing these, Jeff. The '55 BelAir is identical (except the wheels) to one our family had. Brings back some great memories!

    That purple beast is really cool.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos
