Title: 50th Celebrations - Who's Going
Post by: J_Speegle on April 03, 2014, 10:50:54 PM
Ok its coming down to the wire and we might as well see where Forum members have chosen to attend.

Both locations  should be great but it looks that very different from one another but we'll have to wait and see what attendees discover.

In any case Charles and I will be at Charlotte with a spot at the Mustang 50th Charlotte Rare Cars Display

Rare Car Display Site http://www.anghelrestorations.com/rare-cars.html (http://www.anghelrestorations.com/rare-cars.html)

Related forum thread http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=7942.0 (http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=7942.0)

Marcus and Ed have put allot of effort into this display - looks like it will likely be a one time only display so typical of the stuff that happens at the Anniversary shows for any one that have attended them since '84.

Look for us at or near this banner

Come by say hi and lets put some faces with those screen names ;)

As a side note will likely be traveling with one or more boxes of paint stamps. If your car is there, I've got the right stamp - we can get it done ;)
Special offer to Forum members hopefully we can help all that would like to take me up on this offer

Here's hoping that everyone has a safe and uneventful trip to and from which either show you choose to attend.

Know where some of the other members will be attending but will leaved posting that to each of them.  8)

Take your camera, walking shoes and sun screen

Yep, I'll be there as Jeff mentioned.  Looking forward to the display that Marcus and Ed have put together.  The '65 K code throughbred that I restored will have a spot in the tent.  Maybe we can have the concours forum table near the car.

Looking forward to putting more faces to screen-names!

Wife and I Going to be in Charlotte with our '69 Mach1. Have been registered since May last year. And have had our Motel reservations at the host hotel (Embassy) since May also. Can't wait!!!

Gonna drop by and say hi to all CMF folks and can't wait to see the display of rarities that Marcus and Ed have assembled. I've been to the 30th, 40th and 45th, but I do think the 50th will top them all!!!

 :'( tears of envy :( We talked this over months ago...Not able to budget it. Charlotte would've been 1st choice by geography, though Vegas would be nicer! My Coupe was first delivered into Barstow...an old Rte 66 tour with a by-pass into Vegas would have been AWESOME!

I'm in the same boat as you Steve, cars not quite ready to make the drive but really don't want to miss it. A friend of mine and I are planning to head down Wednesday or Thursday and probably come home Saturday. I'll give you a shout if I make it to Charlotte.

Me and five friends who travel together will be in LV and  will definately drop by and say Hello :-) There are at least 50 other Swedes from our club who are going to Las Vegas and also a lot of members from Sweden who are going to Clt. These people have all reported on our club site. I am sure there are a lot of members who are going without reporting it on the site...

See U guys there!

  I just completed the last big project on my restoration, the interior in my June built 64 1/2 coupe , but unfortunately have not purchased my repro tires and ofcourse no alignment yet. If I had a couple more weeks to road test and double check things I would DEFINITELY bring it! Just can't see it hapening at this point. :'(  My family and I will be arriving Wed. morning and leaving Friday night. Hope to meet some of the members and put the screen names with faces too! My car will absolutley be at the Ford Nationals held in Carlisle, PA.  ;)

I will be in Charlotte with both the 72 Mach (trailered in) and the 67 GT driven the 9 hour drive.  Look forward to meeting others on the forum and learning alot more from each and everyone.  My father will also be driving along with me in the 67 so it will be a great time together.  Plan is to catch the Pony Drive in Asheville for the last leg to Charlotte.

I'm going,  have my 65gt conv. registered but I decided to restore it. So no car for me for awhile.
But I'm going to enjoy it all.  Staying at Embasy Suites.  So if anyone needs a late entry it's discounted $$.

Looking forward to meeting some of you.
