Win Chance to Cruise with Happy Days' Potsie and Ralph Malph

Art Van Furniture revs up the fun for Woodward Dream Cruise fans.

Imagine driving Michigan’s most famous street with one of the coolest cruisers ever? Art Van Furniture is offering classic car lovers the chance to cruise Woodward Avenue with Happy Days sitcom stars, Anson Williams (‘Potsie’) or Don Most (‘Ralph Malph’), on Saturday, Aug. 17.  It’s all part of Art Van’s celebration of the summertime classic which attracts more than a million people annually. 

To enter the “Art Van Happy Days Dream Cruisers” contest, classic car owners can post a photo of themselves in their classic car on Art Van Furniture’s Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/art.van.furniture) now through Thursday, August 15 at midnight. Two winners will be selected and announced on Friday, August 16.  “Potsie” will be a passenger in one car and “Ralph Malph” in the other, and the Happy Days dream cruisers will ride the route and wave to classic car fans lining Woodward during a 30 minute drive (exact time to be announced closer to the event).

“Art Van Furniture is located in the heart of the cruise so we look forward to interacting with classic car fans from around the world,” said Art Van Elslander, founder and chairman of Art Van Furniture.  “Bringing in two of television’s most popular actors from Happy Days adds the perfect nostalgic touch, and having them cruise Woodward with contest winners in the front seat of their vintage cars will provide a once in a lifetime thrill.”
