When we <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/08\/15\/woodward-2009-google-watching-the-watchers\/\">spotted the Street View crew<\/a> at last summer&#8217;s cruise, we wondered if any shots of the vintage metal rolling around Detroit would actually make it into Google Maps or not. <\/p>\n<p>Turns out that question has been answered. As of now, you can virtually tour Woodward Ave., complete with snippets of the cruise interspersed. If you were driving your own classic last August, there&#8217;s a chance you can see your car tucked among the rest of the metal. <em>Hat tip to Jed!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=Woodward+Ave,+Birmingham,+Michigan&amp;sll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;sspn=59.727033,135.263672&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=Woodward+Ave,+Birmingham,+Oakland,+Michigan&amp;ll=42.541825,-83.208861&amp;spn=0.027572,0.066047&amp;z=15&amp;layer=c&amp;cbll=42.531194,-83.199237&amp;panoid=IEqUt5g5qEtEmB50631nrg&amp;cbp=12,134.66,,0,5.58\">Google Street View<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/30\/google-maps-gets-down-with-the-woodward-dream-cruise\/\">Google Maps gets down with the Woodward Dream Cruise<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Tue, 30 Mar 2010 10:28:00 EST.
