Went to a car cruise at a very cool 50's style restaurant with car hop service on Satuday called the Chatterbox Drive-In in Augusta NJ.

When I pulled in we drove past a red 68 GT/CS and a few little kids started screaming - "our car - our car - same as ours!".

Talked to the owners for a few minutes, they also have a blue 68 CS at home that isn't registered to drive yet.

They don't frequent the site often so they weren't sure of their screen names. Nice looking car - sorry we didn't get to talk longer but their table was ready for dinner - there was at least an hours wait so didn't want to hold them up.

I had a few people come to the me asking a lot of questions about the car, how rare is it, etc ...
Most people had never seen a GT/CS in person before and to see 2 at the same cruise night in NJ was pretty wild for them!
It was great sharing the history of these cars to everyone.

There was a white late model GT/CS as well but didn't see the owner around.

Here are some pics from the cruise:

That makes two 68's spotted in my area two weekends in a row - that's a first for me!
