Toronto, Ontario: May, 2011: The ultimate blast-from-the-past for classic car enthusiasts! This year’s annual Fleetwood Country Cruize-In kicks off on Friday, June 3rd with a dance show under the big top with the Beach Boys – a band that became THE SOUND of the early 60’s! You won’t believe your eyes and ears when you see “Wolfman Jack” introducing the acts, and what better sound track is there for the thousands of hot rods and classic cars on display all weekend! Saturday’s main feature is an ongoing highlight of the car show – appearances by legendary car builder Gene Winfield and George Barris – the prolific ”King of Kustomizers” and inventor of “star cars” such as the Batmobile, the Munsters coach, the Monkee-mobile and many others. Perennial Cruize-in favorites American Graffiti stars Bo Hopkins and Candy Clark will also be on hand to reminisce about this special era.
A staple of every Cruize-In is some 3000 great classic show cars, trucks and also 2451 spectator cars parked nearby, Amphi-cars on the pond and one show of Square dancing tractors! In addition to the planned festivities on Saturday and Sunday, you can tour the new Fleetwood Auto Salon, and a museum featuring the most lovingly maintained vintage Cadillacs you’ll see in your life!
There’s even more to this party! Top off the day on Saturday with a casual dinner show catered by Bingeman’s featuring famous Canadian 70’s band, Lighthouse.
A successful charity fund-raiser, 2010’s Country Cruize-In event raised an outstanding $345,000 for 26 charities and this year promises to be even better.
Come to London, just over an hour’s drive from Toronto, for the cars, for the fun, and for charity, to celebrate the “good ‘ol days” with newly “reincarnated” Wolfman Jack and the Beach Boys!
