Its that time of the year again, at least for the 18 th annual Stater Bros Route 66 Rendezvous in San Bernardino....Starting next Thursday, the 13th, over 500,000 people are expected to line the streets of Verdue to watch 1,900 classic cars cruiz Fifth street......A 35 block area on the north side of downtown will be blocked off for the 4 day event....this includes the area around Fifth to the north and Rialto Ave. to the south, G street to the west and Sierra Ave to the East.

In years past 2,448 cars were allowed to take part, the number of miles in Route 66......This year the number has been reduced to 1,900 so every car will have a reserved parking space.....All cars will be models from 1973 or earlier with the exception of any Dodge Viper, Chevrolet Corvette or Plymouth Prowler.
