The Parlor Ice Cream Cruise In, Hudsonville, 2009

Another Wednesday night and more people join the group at the Parlor Ice Cream Shoppe in Hudsonville. It takes quite a while to get something going I guess. This is about the fifth Wednesday night we have gathered together to have some great Mooville ice cream and we are still waiting for it to catch on big time. Come on guys and gals. Some of the best ice cream in the area is waiting to be licked.

Look for the sign on 32nd Street and stop in anytime for great, smooth, Mooville Ice Cream! If you come on Wednesdays, the driver gets a cone for FREE!
This is the group that showed up Wednesday, the 29th of July. Some regulars and some new people, too! A VW car, VW bus and a VW Karmann Ghia. Hope you all had a great time eating ice cream!





This is the VW bus. What gave it away? Very nice interior and a juke box in the back. Hey little girl, what's playing?

This cute little VW showed up to join us. Looks like they are working to get this cute bug all back to its prime. Nice car, guys!

This is the Karmann Ghia showing off its great orange paint. Big Red would not look good parked next to this color! But this VW was looking good!

I have taken pics of this car before. One can always tell when it is approaching! Great thunder from the tail pipes! Dad and his two sons share the love of their Chevy.

Going to Newaygo on Saturday. Watch for that post in a day or so. There will be lots of pictures as the River Valley Cruisers show off all the hot cars in Newaygo County and the surrounding area as they all show up at the Dairy Queen and Mug's Rootbeer Stand on M37 in Newaygo. Missed this years event? Don't let another year pass without taking in this show. It is very well run, lots of door prizes, goodie bags and tons of trophies!
Hope to see you there!!

Gemmens Saturday Night 08-18-08

I have seen some wonderful cars over the past few months at Gemmens. I would say this is a great place for a "looker" to hang out. Friendly people, more than willing to share their stories with a person hooked on taking pictures of the men in their magnificent machines. Come along and take a look at this past Saturday night's Show N Shine at Gemmens in downtown Hudsonville. A great place to be on a Saturday night. Gemmens, so much more than a hardware store!







The owner of this duo has a few more at home. Make sure you come back to see the LCCC tour of the garage that holds some great road trip memorabilia, trailers and cars that pulled them.






The owner says this is the real deal. I learned quite a bit just talking to the owner for a few minutes. Did you know that the wing actually is adjustable to increase/decrease airflow to the back end of the car? Enjoy these pictures and watch for this car around Western Michigan.






I think I have a picture or two of this truck in other posts. But I had a chance to talk to the owner. Notice the fact that this is an extended cab truck. Have you ever seen one of those before?!! Very well done. And, by the way, the statement of the little bird...that happens all the time. The ladies call it cute!!




















Another great night at Gemmens on Saturday night. Watch for the next post, 12th Ave. Christian Reformed Church Car Show. Maybe by this week end. Also, I am working on a post showing all of the collector cars I can find in Western Michigan area that are for sale. It may take a while for the group to grow enough for a post, but keep watching.
