Oyster Bay Town Councilman Joseph D. Muscarella invites residents who are looking for a bit of nostalgia to come out for the return of “Classic Car Cruise Nights,” held on select Friday evenings during the months of July and August, at the LIRR Train Station parking lot on Sunrise Highway in Massapequa. Continuing on July 24, Aug. 7 and Aug. 21, the classic car events are presented by the town’s Department of Parks and Recreation Division and will display vintage automobiles in a fun and festive atmosphere.
“Anyone interested in vintage cars will be impressed by the wide collection of classic automobiles featured at the event,” said Muscarella. “Each Classic Car Cruise Night is a wonderful opportunity to see how the owners of vintage cars have maintained their prized possessions so well, and kept these vehicles in such perfect condition over the years. Younger residents attending the Cruise Nights will get to see a part of American culture up close.”
Muscarella added that residents are invited to Classic Car Cruise Nights, free of charge. Those who have a vintage car and wish to display must have a valid registration and license plates for the vehicle, and must register upon arrival. Registration begins at 6:15 p.m.
Vintage car owners are required to donate two cans of food in order to have their cars displayed. All vintage cars may only be driven by their owners, who are required to stay for the entire event.
The councilman also noted that Classic Car Cruise Nights are limited to automobiles. As such, motorcycles are not permitted.
“I invite residents to come to the Massapequa train station for one of these classic car events,” he said. “Enjoying these cars is a great way to spend a summer evening.”
