One of the many murals around downtown Pontiac, many of the Cruisin' Tigers members spent time jockeying their cars around for photo opportunities.

These original vintage Pontiac glasses were really a sight to see. There were also many vintage models, slot cars, and toys on display, but it was hard to get a lot of photos due to the crowds, and also because the flash off the camera would bounce back off the cabinet glass.

I was really happy to hear that this museum was becoming a reality. I need to get the kids up there sometime soon (as long as they don't mind if we show up in a Mustang [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] ).

I have to admit, it was really something being at the grand opening. Tim Dye did a fantastic job on the museum, and we're hoping he can expand in the future. If you do make the drive, make sure to go through the Route 66 Museum, and if you're into military memorabilia, the War Museum was really cool, especially if you like to talk to veterans. There were at least 100 uniforms on display.
