Ford Car Show given by our Mustang Club

This past Sunday was the Ford Car Show that our Mustang club, Tri-County Thoroughbred Corral, held.  All the proceeds from the show go to great causes, Make-A-Wish & Toys For Tots.



The day started off with a lot of fog.  It had rained all day on Saturday.  And some spots on the road where covered with rocks & mud washed down from all the rain.  But once the fog burned off, the weather was perfect.  Sunny & just warm enough without it being too hot. We brought along a jug of ice tea & plenty of snacks for the day.  And the kids brought along lots of toys & books to keep them occupied. 



It was our first time at this car show with our Mustang club.  We had a nice turn out too.  And they didn't just allow Ford models, but there were a few other models also which was really nice to see.  The members cars weren't judged.  We had our own place to park so all the club members Mustangs were lined up.  I believe that there was 27 member cars there. (And the General Lee.) 



We obviously took our Parnelli Jones Saleen Mustang & Mike drove the General Lee there.  I must admit, that the more I drive our Mustang, & become more comfortable with it, the more fun I have with it.  It's just a fun car to drive.



At the show they had Chinese auction which there were so many great things to win.  Our kids were excited when they won a ZhuZhu Pet boat. And thanks to our kids, Pappy won an oil change an hour away from his home.  LOL!  Everyone had a great time at the show.  It was a fun day with great friends & great cars.  Our kids loved looking at the cars & our son is starting to ask questions about cars which is great.  I hope that our kids continue to love cars.  They are the next generation of car fans.

It's hard to believe that it's August already & summer will be coming to an end.  So in the meantime, we must get our cars out as much as possible between now & winter.  Talk to you soon!

  1. I commend your club for organizing a wonderful car show that benefitted the Make A Wish and Toy for Tots! How awfully nice of you guys! =D You know, you should encourage more people to join the club. That way, there will be a bigger contribution for such events.

  2. It is indeed a fun experience to drive the Ford Mustang. Anyone will surely enjoy driving a powerful car like that, and isn’t that great? You guys have a General Lee! You'll surely make Bo and Luke proud!

  3. Thanks for the responses! And thank you for reading our blog. Our club is a wonderful club. Great people & wonderful cars. And we love our Mustang & General Lee. Owning a General Lee was a dream come true as we are huge fans of the Dukes of Hazzard. Thanks again!
