I'm in Lafayette GA, That's Walker county which borders TN and AL. Anyone planning on hitting some cruise ins this year. We have done one in Cartersville on the 1st Sat. Dalton on the 2nd Sat. Canton on the 3rd Sat. and Cleveland TN on the 4th Sat. All of these bring out a couple hundred cars and trucks and they are all free! If you haven't ever gone to these you should check them out. No judges to impress, most are very laid back. I have seen everything from trailered show cars to rusty primered beaters at these events. I hope to see some of you guys there!

Im in marietta 72 long wheel getting ready to build a 383.
