Multiple Mustangs!
This year at the all Ford Carlisle, Penn show they put together a collection of 1971, 1972 & 1973 Mustangs inside Building T. This is for the 50th Ann. of the 1971 Mustang. I was picked for one of the inside display 1973 Mustang Mach 1. Brian will be there with his 1972 Concourse Mach 1 and not sure who else. I know Rich is going to be there and hope his 1973 vert is in.
I just hope I make it. I leave at midnight tonight about 550 miles for me. Issue is my F-150 5.4 has over 308,000 miles and no engine or transmission work. It gets about 9.5 MPG pulling the 20" enclosed trailer. I have to take it easy about 55 so that when it down shifts stays at about 3,500 rpm. At night should be cooler also. Never been to the Carlisle show so if any members make it look me and Brian up in Building T. If I am not there there I pill put a clip board on the car for you to leave a note with cell to call. Maybe we can go eat or something.

Here are some pics of mine and Brian's cars. BTW Brian won Best of Show at the Ponies in the Smokies with over 1,000 mustangs there. My car is a survivor not restored, original Ford paint, vinyl roof and interior. So no where near as great as Brian's car.

Have a safe trip David. I will meet you there. I leave tomorrow morning. It will be 700+ miles for me. I will be at the show on Friday morning.

PS: I didn't register in advance for the Show Field so I will register onsite. I hope there are spots available. The online registration is closed.

1973 Mach1, Q code, 4 speed, with an open 3:25 differential. It has what is left of the original Gold Glow paint and a very sun baked ginger interior. I purchased it in Winslow Arizona in May 2018. It has a 75 DSO and I believe it spent its entire time in AZ. It appears to have been parked in 1978 until earlier this year when the guy I bought it from purchased it.
Safe travels!  I won’t have my ‘73 but I will be there Friday and Saturday.  Hope to meet all of you and see your cars!  Wanted to bring ours but still trying to work the bugs out.  Will definitely look for you cars and leave my info, getting together after show sounds good to us.
