High Point Cruise-In

The cruise-in in High Point, North Carolina probably has the most diversed selection of collectable cars in the area, and on it's15th year has no signs of slowing down! The collectable cars range from muscle, modifies, early/late models, ratrods and newer vehicles. It was great to compare the differences and similarities of the 2010 Camaro and Challenger to the originals.

Click on the video below to catch a glimpse at a '71 Plymouth 340 Cuda bought NEW in 1971! This is a 340 Six Barrel Engine! Can you guess the value on this Mopar?

Check out this '61 Desoto (2 Door)! In 1961, only 911 2 door Desoto's were produced making this classic a keeper! Can you name other model cars with similar tail fins? This was one of my favorites at the show!

This is a remarkable Shelby G.T. 350! Take a look!

The High Point cruise-in is every Thursday from 5:00 to 9:00 pm located at 1628 S. Main Street! If you're eager to cruise in your classic on a sunny day during the colder months then you can cruise to High Point!

See you there!

Ratrod or Opel?

Click on the video below to get a sneak peak at this creative Ratrod! Notice the detail of the barb wire, and the lack of a radiator in the front of the vehicle! The Ratrod gives enthusiasts the ability to create a totally different automobile, and still considered a collector car to the owner. The creativity of this Ratrod makes it really cool!

The Opel has a stylish design, and only in production from 1968 to 1973. This '73 Opel GT is a perfect example! Take a close look at the sleek steel unibody and the pop-up headlights, which are manually operated by a large lever along the center console next to the shifter. Gorgeous classic!

Which car is your favorite? Is it the creative Ratrod or stylish Opel GT? You decide! You can see both of these collectable cars at Brusters Ice-Cream on Wednesday nights in Mooresville, NC.
