Back in high school I used to attend Cruise Nite every year with my 1975 Plymouth Valiant (sleeper), my restored 1949 Willys Overland 'Jeep' 4X4 pickup, various years Pontiac Fieros (yes each family member has their own) and my various motorcycles. My sister even showed her 1979 Plymouth Volare` Road Runner. Me and my friends used to make a weekend of it. I have pictures but nothing digitized. This would have been back in the mid 90's.

Prince,did you ever have any Brit bikes. Youad,your right about the coast cruisin,not much since the hurricane...Prince, I did a frame off on a CJ2 1950's model,up grade to 12 volt.It was so slow(40mph) I was scared on the two lane roads with the logging trucks running up behind me.

No, no Brit bikes just vintage Japanese street and European motocross bikes. This was my first antique car I restored and I take it on tour at least once a year during my WOKR (Willys Overland Knight Registry) Missouri Valley chapter tour. Tours range from about 250 miles over several days. All my cars are factory accurate with only minor modifications to make them more driver friendly and reliable.
1930 Willys Knight 70B (it features the "Knight" engine)
This a future project pending, its in perfect mechanical condition and my folks still use it from time to time for hauling dry fertilizer to the field when drilling wheat.
1947 Ford 1 ton 79Y (FYI the "F" series started in 48) this has the Flathead V8 engine.
I would like to eventually restore the truck in the foreground also someday but it is still currently in use on the farm.
1965 F600 352 V8 (oposed to the "big six" that came in most of the trucks) and for those wondering the blue tractor in the backround is a 1974 Kenworth W900 (turbo), the truck in the middle is a 1985 F9000 (supercharged) both are twin screws.
My sisters 79 Volare` and my 88 Fiero
My 1975 Plymouth Valiant (this was taken shortly after I painted it and yes that is me at 16)

Here are even more photos.
This photo is a dumb photo, a strange photo, and a bit morbid. I just had to include it.
This vehicle is a 1955 Ford F100 pickup which started as a small project and as soon as it was finished turned into a huge expensive project. This vehicle has been shown, if I recall correctly, at two big car shows. One on the East coast and one on the West coast. It was ranked as one of the top three vehicles in its class in the shows.
I liked this car because it except for the color it reminds me of the vehicle my mother used to drive back in the seventies.
More photos to come.

Not too many photos left.
This Mustang is my favorite. It has only 9,800 actual miles. It is the original paint, and interior. Nothing has been added or changed on this vehicle. This vehicle has been very well taken care of by the owners for many years.
