[T3] Woodward Dream Cruise


<x-flowed>Actually calling it a cruise is a bit of a misnomer. It was more like the Woodward Dream Traffic Jam. I made one trip from up Woodward and back down (approximately 20 miles) in a little over 6 hours. YES, 6 Hours!!!! Leg and foot got real sore working the clutch.

Sophy ran great the whole time. I got lots of comments and compliments from the people lining the streets and from fellow cruisers. Some of the local Michigan Vintage VW Club folks set up a spot in restaurant parking lot. Hung out there for a while and talked VWs and Type 3s. Couldn't believe my eyes. There were 5 Type 3s in the parking lot! 5 out of maybe 15 VWs! We had Sophy, Mike Novak's 73 Fasty, Dave Sanchez's 73 Square that was accessorized to the max, a Type 3 pick-up conversion, and a really clean 69 Dark Green Square that was for sale (if anyone is interested I took some pictures of it and the sign with the phone number, asking around $4500).

All in all a good day, but I think I will park and walk next time. Will make much better time. <G>
