WITH their cars shone and their dancing shoes tied, hundreds flocked to the third annual Camperdown Cruise and Rockabilly weekend.More than 300 classic cars lined Manifold Street on Saturday for the display before cruising to Terang and returning to dance the night away.Organiser Arthur Bruce said he was ``overwhelmed'' by the turnout with visitors from across three states. ``I've never seen the theatre or the streets lined with so many cars or people ever before.
