Austin - Cen-Tex Area Meets, Cruise-In's, and Car Shows

For Folks in and around Austin, or visiting, here are some of the local cruise-ins and upcoming shows.

One of the reasons I totally love living here (in addition to being able to wear shorts all year, the music, the food, sunshine almost every day, friendly people, NO SNOW/SALT, and amazing salvage yards with nearly a total lack of rust within a few hours’ drive..) is the HUGE car-culture Austin has. You can find somewhere to hang out almost every weekend.

Sunday Morning Monthly Area Meets - note the Earlybirds (between 9-10am or earlier) get the good spots at these, and most of these are over by 1pm:
