Big Turn Out at Late Summer Bass Pro Shops Cruise-In

All summer long, Bass Pro Shops at Patriot Place in Foxboro, MA has been holding cruise-ins every other Thursday night.  Yesterday’s event was perfect, with low-80 degree temperatures, clear skies, and a tons of cars attending.  Entrants ranged from 1920s Coupes to brand new Ferraris.  As usual, there was a big crowd of Corvettes, and of course, a group of Factory Fives.

There were five Factory Five Roadsters in our customer corral and another Roadster parked further down in the show.  It seemed like it was Blue Thursday as all five Roadsters in the group were in some form of the classic blue with white stripes.  Also present was a beautiful silver Type 65 Coupe.

We arrived around 3:30 and it was a blast to watch all of the hot rods and customs cruise into the Bass Pro parking lot.  Attendees lined the long entrance road and watched the parade of vehicles drive by.

We mounted a camera to customer Craig L.’s Mk3 Roadster, filming his drive from Mansfield, MA to the event in Foxboro.  You can check it out below:

Charlie D. Graduates his Type 65 Coupe!

Customer Charlie D. started his Coupe build in Spring 2018, and by the end of the year, he had his first start and was soon go-carting around the neighborhood.
