Here's some pictures from the first "real" cruise night at Mel's. Thanks to everyone for coming, it was a good one. I didn't get a real count, but I'd say we had 40-50 cars -- which is really good for such a new cruise night!

Wow. The forum's automatic picture compression makes these look like crap....

Wish I could have made it this week. Hopefully next week I can.

Hopefully work slows down a little so that I can make at least one of these.

Mel's is a great place for families. We had a fun time. Thank you for setting this up. I never knew the place even existed.

was a great time and a nice place to hang out at...i can see this location getting very popular


on a side note, big thank you to Bruce, ToplessPony94 for letting me try his convertible boot on my car. Was able to get that question answered with out a doubt that 96-98 convertible boots do not fit on my car. Now all I have to do is try the 99-01 boot cover.

No problem, Ian. Glad to help.

Yes, Mel's should become very popular. It combines food, ice cream, go-carts, laser tag, batting, driving range, and an arcade, not to mention MUSTANGS if it's Wednesday night! What more do we need!

Hey Ian,, I have a 01 Boot cover for my car, I am going to attempt being at the Rock on Sunday morning for the cruise up to FFW and I will have it with me and your more than welcome to see if it fits your car.... If I don't make it Sunday, **pretty sure I will at least make it to FFW for a few hours on Sunday *** but if for some reason I don't make it I will be a pep boys on next Tuesday as usual...

Todd, what makes you think I let the dog in the car? She loves to run. LOL
She sits nicely on back seat, that is until she sees someone.

Nice pics guys, definately looks like a must go. That was a go kart track? Perhaps they would let us take the cars on it? Many years ago we used to hang out at a track, after hours the owner would let just a few of us out and would sneak around the track with a bucket of water and dump it. Made for some interesting drives and spins.
My wife and I just got back from a car show to warm your heart. It was at the Tilton NH Veterans home. No big trophys or such, but a bunch of wheelchairs, oxygen tanks and our nations best. The weather was perfect. Y'all can be proud of us, the Lakes Region 'Vette club was there in full force, we of course parked very close to them, up wind of course. Our Mach was the only 'stang there and wanted to chew on any of those plastic toys, but it behaved nicely. All in all other than the snobs, the 'vette bunch was ok, every one there had a cute little plastic nameplate properly pinned to their chest. It was a great experience to visit the residents and both old and new vets. Happy cruzin to all, see ya at fun ford...

Well I also didn't see that your son come out either, you probably put the dog in his car! I was going to say in your trunk, but I know you wouldn't do that to your car

btw, whose fox was that with the kenne bell blower parked next to Jim? That car was sick

I didn't get to walk around much because of my dog but are you refering to the '90 maroon hatchback (I think) one? If so that's a friend of mine, Bruce Baxter. He is a club member and had just added it. The other '90 coupe parked next to me (Todd) was my son's '90 coupe and he wants to install the same setup.
