Cruise Night August 31 2010

It was a great night for cruisin' in Tillsonburg, with tons of cars showing up despite the hot weather.

Cruise Tillsonburg had a visit from Haldimand-Norfolk-Brant MPP Toby Barrett, who brings his car by once in a while.

According to Doug, the Friday cruise night at the Schusters had a great turnout and a good time was had by all!

Also, a congratulations to Ralph and Marlene Carter of Aylmer, for winning Feature Car of the Week with their 1979 Mini 1000.

Have a great week and see you next week!

AmCar Guide decided to pick out the best movie muscle cars that have ever appeared on screens. The aim was to select only muscle cars and only from movies so a few serious candidates didn't appear on this list because they were from TV series, was not a muscle car, or simply didn't get into this list. Anyway, AmCar Guide wants to mention 1970-1971 Plymouth Barracuda from "Nash Bridge" [with Don Johnson], Cobra from "Cobra" [with Michael Dudikoff], non muscle but exotic and iconic 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 from "Back to the Future", 1977 Pontiac Trans Am from "Smokey and the Bandit",1958 Plymouth Fury from "Christine", "Kitt" - Pontiac Firebird Trans Am from "Knight Rider", 1969 Dodge "01? Charger from "The Dukes of Hazzard",1959 Cadillac Ambulance from "GhostBusters", etc. Each of them is someone's dream car, each is perfect in some ways, but here's our TOP 10 Movie Muscle Cars:

By Christine Harrell

Classic car restoration is a hobby that requires know-how, creativity and patience to turn an old beater into a gorgeous show-stopper. Cars that were made a lifetime ago require special care and upkeep. Rather than letting them sit in the barn and rust, most classic vehicles need repairs, attention and a lot of TLC.
