Im in the north-west suburbs (near lake zurich, et.al.) and there is the Volo auto museum nearby. Also a dog n suds that has a big cruise night every saturday, an operating drive in theater in mchenry, and cruise nights in downtown richmond on fridays.</P><P>I know further south is friday night cruise nights in wheaton and downers grove, and elmhurst on wednesday.</P><P>Im asking because my wife and I try to do some of these, but we RARELY see any other y-blocks (except for the little t-birds)... might be fun to meet up with a few others at one of these events....</P><P>Any thoughts?Wed, 07 May 2008 18:45:13 GMTrgrove
