Morrin – May 17, 2025 – 45 photos
I arrived at Morrin around noon, right about when the rain stopped and the sun came out. I missed about 20 cars who left the show early due to the inclement weather. I still managed to see a nice selection of vehicles including Wayne's 1950 Ford barn-find which he just got roadworthy a few days ago. Another car from 1950 which grabbed my attention was the 1950 Studebaker … [Read more...] about Morrin – May 17, 2025 – 45 photos

Great Falls – May 3, 2025 – 330 photos
The beautiful weather resulted in a massive turnout of cars and spectators at Great Falls' Crusin the Drag.

Wendy was displaying her 1965 GTO which was purchased new by her mother. I was pleased to see a large … [Read more...] about Great Falls – May 3, 2025 – 330 photos
Great Falls MT Preview – 93 Photos
I managed to catch a few of the cars who were participating in tonight's poker rally. Later on, after the sun went down, there was lots of activity as you can see from all the photos I took in the dark. Dan said they were expecting close to 900 cars at tomorrow's Cruisin' the Drag. He added that many of the pre-registrants were Canadians. The weather has cooperated with a hot, … [Read more...] about Great Falls MT Preview – 93 Photos
