Featured on Camaro5 HOMEPAGE.

Over 30 members of Chicago5thGen went for a cruise up Historic Route 66 today, we had a BLAST!!

We headed down to Pontiac, IL this morning, stopping at Lynn Chevrolet for their customer appreciation day/cookout (one of our members bought BOTH of his Camaros there) Thanks to Lynn Chevrolet for the hospitality, preferred parking, and food! From there, we headed over and toured through the Route 66 Museum, which included the Route 66 mural that we were able to use to take pictures of the cars. From there, we cruised back to Chicagoland on Historic Route 66, stopping along the way at an icecream shop, and PACKING THE LOT FULL

- Did I mention that we HAD A BLAST?

Here are some of the pics, and videos, too!

Thanks for sharing. I especially like the red camaro in the bottom right of that picture.

Well, if you had sized the pic right, then I wouldn't have to scroll right to look at my car. Doh! LOL

P.S. I do like Jim's car. Looks very much like mine.

operator965 · 07-10-2011, 09:09 PM

I know you guys from Chicago 5th Gen. thought you went to southern Illinois when you went to Pontiac, ( Yes it is south of I80) but Route 66 runs the whole state. Keep coming south and discover the rest of the MOTHER ROAD! There are miles and miles of corn fields you have never seen!

lawdog · 07-10-2011, 11:16 PM

We have been as far south as Memphis TN to see Elvis Presleys Home and Beal St., ect does that count, LOL We took a Cruise there on April 4.

Looks like you all had fun. I did the route 66 cruise from Chicagoland to St. Louis back in the spring of 2010 with my 2010 Camaro RS but I don't recall seeing that cool mural in Pontiac. Here are my pics from the thread I created (which was featured on the homepage). http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=74161
