Where did you cruise in your automobile?

[grantgeneral78]

SW59th from penn to western circle through mcdonalds and then up to sonic and start all over again with stops in between. Then off to Moore....good ole days

[Prunepicker]

I cruised Moore a few times. Most of the time it was to find the places on the
Rumor Mill.

Back in the 60's we cruised between Sulfur and Davis. There was a groups of
us staying in Platt National Park. We cruised from Dove's Drive-In - now a
Sonic - to the Pizza Hut in Davis. It was pretty cool and took about 15
minutes each way. Dove's was a great drive-in.

What are they doing on N.W. 39th Expressway every Friday night?

if they are breaking the speed limit, its called street racing, not cruising.

[RealJimbo]

Officer Rains at Quick's. I think his first name was really Officer.

Rode a Yamaha 350, right?

Rode a Yamaha 350, right?

I believe that was his bike until he got that Kawasaki Mach III.

[RealJimbo]

Yep. I remember that one, fading away - screaming - into the night at 11:00 when he would finish his shift.

Several of us watched him take off down N.W. 32nd Street one night. Mach
III's could hit 60mph in less than 5 seconds.

Posted a pic of me with my '65 Malibu SS (circa 1969) in my profile. I don't know how to bring it into a thread, but it is there.

[lt14life]

Well I grew up in the village and we would cruise from Britton Rd to May then north on may to Hefner then East on hefner to Western and it was just round and round all night . This was in the 70's. I graduated from John Marshall in 1976.

Main street in Tuttle, unless we had the gas money to drive to the "Big City" and cruise SW 59th. Had friends that worked at the McDonald's and Taco Bell on S. Penn, so nutrition was never a problem.

[possumfritter]

Mission Bay Blvd, 1965 Chevy Malibu Convertible, and my squeeze was Cheryl V.

[RealJimbo]

S.W. 59th
S. Pennsylvania
S. Western
N.W. 39th Expressway
N. Classen Blvd. between Holly's & Quick' Drive Ins
S. Peoria (Tulsa)

Remember Pennington's in Tulsa?

[RealJimbo]

Just read back through this thread and saw where someone mentioned the Classen Circle. Most vivid "cruising" memory ever, late one night in the '60s I saw a young lady driving around and around the circle in a TR3 (I think) with no visible clothing. Certainly no top. She was going around the circle the wrong way. Only in the '60s.

[Prunepicker]

Remember Pennington's in Tulsa?

I lived about a block from it! S. Peoria & 43rd-ish, on the "Endless Ribbon"

Pennington's, Hollie's and some drive-in in Kansas City had some kind of
organization. It was on their cups. Pennington's was almost identical to
Hollie's as far a food went. Loved the fried chicken, fries and roll with honey!

[Soonerus]

Jolly Cone in Midwest City...awesome...

[JMGrad68]

JM Class of 1968, we'd cruise the Delta (now Coit's on N Penn near I-44) to Quik's on N Classen.

[mdeff]

Okay....Classen high class of '64. The route we took, TR3, MGA, Healy 3000, Tbird and many others from about '62 through the summer of '64 was: Bixler's on the corner of 23rd and N. Penn to Quick's at 32nd and Classen to the Split T north on Western. Some times to the Charcoal oven and even down to Hollies and cruise Reno then back up Classen. Quicks was our primary hang out. Then college and school and or war for most of us.

[SOONER44EVER]

We'd cruise from just east of Meridian on 39th (near Dunkin Donuts) west to Council, south to Cactus Jacks on NW 10th then back. Good times!!

================================================== ===========
Yeah, but, I still have my same date....what a"Chick".....45 years on the 13th of this month. Hoping for 45 more....Took her out to Charcoal Oven last night....back in under the old Awning and just sat there and ate our $9.00 plus burger in the Quiet of our own car.....Used to be a Chevy Impala that would run...Now it's Lexus SUV that just goes where we need it to....Oh yeah Penny...do you remember any of those spots???? PM me so my Wife and I can check them out.....Notice PapaOU:..........45 years.....

Charcoal Oven was great but being a Northsider, most of our Cruisin was on 39th Expressway or even NW HWY.

[FRISKY]

if they are breaking the speed limit, its called street racing, not cruising.

Yep, NW 39th has lots of folks cruising (illegal street racing), but it's on Saturday night not Friday. I'm one of those guys that cruise 39th and have been since the '60s. It was better in the '60s.

[FRISKY]

So far, of all the cruise spots mentioned in this thread, the only spot I didn't cruise was the one in Tulsa. It's funny to think back to how important cruising and fast cars have been in my life...and still are. It doesn't look like I'm going to grow out of it anytime soon.

[papaOU]

The Spot to Hollies and back. Two Del Rancho's south of the Spot. Of course, Paseo. But that was less of a cruise then a final destination.

[gen70]

I once put 350 miles on my 72 Monte Carlo on a Sat. night just cruiseing OKC.
