Vehicle: 1954 Ford Crestliner

Why this car? I've got a modified Ford Crestliner. It's got a nice low ride and the interior of a 1979 LTD. I added flame thrower on the back, so she shoots a nice flame. It rides good.

What’s special about Woodward and/or the Dream Cruise for you? I went to the very first Dream Cruise. Now I come one day before the Cruise and spend the day here. It gets too crazy on Friday and Saturday.
