Bluffton's Festival of Wheels attracts classic cars and more on Friday

FROM BLUFFTON ICON - Once upon a time gasoline was leaded, 30 cents a gallon, or cheaper.

Really.

Those days are gone, but many of the vehicles hooked on that gas survived. Over 200 of them return to Bluffton on Friday for the 49th Bluffton Festival of Wheels cruise-in, sponsored by the Bluffton Lions.

If luck prevails, you might catch glimpses of some gone-but-not forgotten heavy metal cruisers that once roamed Main Street Bluffton.

These included strange names like: Plymouth, Studebaker, Mercury, Edel, VW Bug, Woody, Oldsmobile, DeSoto and Packard.
