This weekend in Jersey the weather was spectacular. Sunny all three days (Fri Sat Sun) and the temps were around 60 maybe more in the warm sun.
Friday we were at a local cruise, dwindling down to the diehards, maybe 15 cars. Once the sun went down the breeze probably had the temps in the 40s, or it felt like it anyway. Or perhaps they were preparing themselves for the days ahead. ..

First, The Pumpkin run on Saturday. I only took a few photos but they have something for everyone, Trucks, Farm tractors, hit and miss engines, Swap meet, food vendors, junk yard, car show, race cars, Hay rides, Pumpkin Chunkin , ...its here. Probably over a thousand cars this year. We rolled in at 630 in the dark to get a spot cars were still coming in at noon

I was not really thinking of posting all these or any of these . I wish I had gotten more of the other areas ..... This event has become regional, not just local anymore
 
That was Saturday......

Next up, Sunday . Some members from local clubs were meeting up to go for a cruise to a members garage. He and a buddy share this man cave ... The frige was fully stocked and the food kept rolling in ....I was there about three hours after the 20 minute cruise.
These were gracious hosts that knew how to keep car guys happy. Great party guys..Thank you...

Great pics and thanks for sharing. I swear there must be more 70 Chevelles around today than were made. Same with E body Cuda's
 
I like the 71's, not sure why. The green one was a 454 SS with 4 speed with original low miles ....
 
Don't get me wrong ,,they are a nice car and I used to own one. Never owned a E body though.
 
I have owned an E body .... you arent missing much. I saw a beautiful blue 72 Malibu / Chevelle at the Pumpkin Run yesterday. Fully restored as built, no SS nothing....I noticed it!
 
Fred, FYI ive been meaning to tell you when Diane and I went to the Lebanon Valley show we ran into Jon and his new lady. All is well and still pushing his ragtop. Yes, hes divorced again and has a new chick, yet same old carefree Jon
