October 7, 2010 By Downtown Flat Rock

Flat Rock, MI - Big Boy Classic Car Cruise
Flat Rock, MI - Big Boy Classic Car Cruise

The glory days of the automobiles and Detroit show up every Monday night at Flat Rock’s Big Boy. Everything from Ford’s earliest to vintage Corvettes roar into the parking lot to Cruise like it was “Happy Days” again.

If you’re a classic car buff you can’t miss this opportunity.

The classic beauties (cars too!) roll in between 5:00 and 8:00 pm every Monday–giving you a great chance to grab a great hometown-style meal at Big Boys and then stroll back through yester-year to that car you loved or the one you always wished you had.

Here are some quick pictures of some of the classic cars at a recent cruise.

WELCOME TO FLAT ROCK

The first Euro-American settlers in Flat Rock were Michael Vreeland and his five grown sons between 1811 and 1820. Michael had been captured by British Rangers during the Revolutionary War and released after American independence.

The family purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2). The town was called the Village of Vreeland until 1838 when the Vreeland family sold off the majority of the land and relinquished control of the area. The Vreeland families built the first grain and lumber mill, having brought the grinding stones from New York.

Descendants of Michael Vreeland still live in the town and attend Flat Rock public schools, being the seventh generation to reside in the town their family founded.
