Steve owns a `63 Maxie that's never been out of his garage the entire 12 yrs. I know him, but his 440-6Bbl `64 Savoy is his daily driver. :-D
I've been seeing that car for years at Bellmore etc.
In one of your posts there's a picture of Union Tpk. & Clearview Expressway. That picture is about 3 miles from where I live now and believe me, nothing happening there these days. Just memories..... :angry7:
Kids 'race' on the Cross Island in the middle of the day now. They make a line of cars and slow down traffic behind them to about 20mph then gun it from a running start. It's all kids in Hondas and Subarus. Amazing noone gets killed. I know these kids seem to get arrested on a regular basis though, they're quite stupid.
There used to be a cruise night on Thursdays about 10-12 years ago on Maurice Ave., off the LIE at the McDonalds that always ended up in some sort of race somewhere in Queens. It was kind of an old school crowd, I remember several Mopars that always showed up. I was intimidated when I first made the rounds around there, people looked at me all sorts of cockeyed because they didn't know who I was. I had a beat-up old '67 Bel II with a 273. What a joke!
BTW, S&S Speed is still on Atlantic Ave. That place has some history!
