Why this car? I really wanted a fast car that my wife, my son and daughter-in-law could ride around town in — especially during the Dream Cruise. When I saw this, I knew I had to have it.
What’s special about Woodward and/or the Dream Cruise for you? I grew up racing cars on Woodward Avenue and have always had hot rods. We just love to drive the boulevard and park along the sides, watching the magic of the Cruise.
