Here’s some pictures of River Ridge Hot Rod Association’s four founding members. Left to Right, Kevin & Jill, Jackie, & some stranger, and last but not least, Elaine by her 34 truck. Don’t mind Big Al in the background, he’s just tryin to figure out what the hell Jackie was thinking.
I want to tell you a little bit about us.
We enjoy meeting new people. We also enjoy sharing stories and learning from our elders (mostly Jackie).We are simple people that want to, if only for a short time, forget all the crap that’s going on in the world today and remember the better times this country has had, even though some of us may have not lived in that time.
I personally think I was born about 25 years too late.
My problem is I can’t seem to understand most of the new music, and the things people do to some of the newer cars. I’m not saying its wrong, but I’m not walking around with my underwear showing and my pants riding down somewhere down by my crotch. Don’t get me started.
Anyway, I hope y’all can come out and enjoy our company, as we will enjoy yours, and help us start a new tradition at Dave and Nancy’s Frostop 112 Sauve Road (click here for a map). If it works, we all will have a place to go - hopefully every Friday - and forget about the present and step back in time as if we all didn’t care about what happens tomorrow.
Open Cruise Nights (FIRST FRIDAY 6:00 - 10:00) of every month. Limited parking, so come early, and please respect our neighbors. Save the hot rodding for the track.
OK, how about a Fire Truck and a Dragster……..WHAT NEXT!!! Man what a night. Thanks for the great turnout. I know we all had a good time. Yes, we finally did the door prizes and the 50/50…better late than never I always say. Our member numbers are almost 30 with over 35 cars. Hang in there guys, if we get past this first year we’ll have it made. I need to meet with all our great sponsors and work out all the details. Anyone want to help. I dont know what else to say but thanks for making this happen. Without you guys this would just be another one of those dreams I keep having. Just wait till the River Ridge Hot Rod Shop opens up. Sorry….. just another one of those dreams….
Last but not least I would like to thank DJ Jackie (Dr. VooDoo)and Elaine. Without knowing these two I don’t know that this would have been possible. I’ll see you in the morning Jackie, save me a cup of coffee.

Great website. Can’t wait until I have my 68 Camaro running to show it off at a future cruise night.
Thanks Kevin for getting me started on my car.

SPONSORS NEEDED. Check out our sponsor page.
I don’t own a hot rod, but I’m a big fan of the cause. Great website!
Hey Kevin, any car shows happening Memorial Day weekend? And, where should I send the $10 for membership?
Sorry Dude, my bad. But this weekend at the end Williams Blvd at the lake is a great one. Pam and Walter put on one of the years best car shows, “Save our Lake” for a good cause too. Sunday May 31. Hope to see you out there.
Way to go dude, think this is a great idea and hope that the club is a huge success. I may not own a hot rod but I sure enjoy looking back at the “GOOD OLE DAYS” and the cars that were a big part of the past.
Keep up the site and best of luck.
