          Since Porky's demise? Nowhere in particular. The weekend car scene in the metro has pretty much sucked ever since. Checked out Har-Mar a few times, but it wasn't my thing. It's been a few years since I've done any Fri/Sat night cruising/hanging-out.

                  Too old?? Naw...

                  Saw this Studebaker on there. My dad had a similar model in the early 50s, but it was a ragtop coupe.

                      North St Paul and Hastings don't count? Between the two they have most weekends covered through the summer into the fall.

                        I know both of them have a good draw, I was talking about the late model crowd that mostly hung out at the pig. It seem like since that has closed not much happens on the weekends anymore. I like to take out the 94 and go somewhere and hang out but most cars shows are like '81 and earlier.

                          Yeah, there isn't much happening for the later-model stuff - which really sucks. The last time I had a hot-rod that would meet the usual early 80s age cutoff was back in the mid-80s, when I had the candy-apple-red '65 Cutlass hardtop coupe with the 315 HP 330.

                            Once I heard the Anoka gathering is only for early 70s and older, I've never gone. Not going to pull the Chevelle out of storage to go when my Camaro would blow the doors off of probably 90% of what's at the event. I'm a fan of the old cars because I grew up in that era, but there's a snobbishness from the old crowd that makes them think the older cars are better. In my opinion--the majority of those cars didn't do much of anything very well. The exception would be '67 SS 396 Chevelle, rare 1st gen F-bodies, '67 4-4-2 , '70-'72 SS-454 Chevelle or '70 Stage 1 GS 455. There are others, but...

                              I just threw those places out there. For me they are kind of like the state fair, only need to go once every few years and I'm good. Agree on a certain snob factor with that crowd but that's probably with every era to a certain degree. Ever talk to late model Euro folks ie Mercedes, BMW, etc. They may be much worse lol.
