69gmachine 15 Report post Posted March 2, 2009 Yep. I booked the hotel shortly after they announced it. I'm really hoping to do the MAA pony drive also, just not sure I'll be able to swing the funding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70Mach03 12 Report post Posted March 2, 2009 Yeap, but I'll be there but in my '03 Mach instead. I'm there more to look than anything else and since the wife's going too, the '03 is a tad be more comfy than the '70 on a long road trip (LOL). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stangme428 33 Report post Posted March 2, 2009 yep I will be in B'Ham too ... not in my 69' I'm not going to rush it just to drive 8+ hours with the stangs first time being on the road in ..now 9 years.. to much room for oportunity..lol.. should be a great show, i have been going since the 30th celebration and also the MCA anniversary shows. usually some great parts and decent show specials and all kinds of interesting mustang fanatics. should be interesting this year to see the price of project cars since it seems the value of mustangs has crept up over the last few years. wish i would have bought some of those 2500-3500.00 cars about 10 years ago...:whistling: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

70Mach03 12 Report post Posted April 21, 2009 more 69's .... cobra jet convert ..... dont know if its real.. but it was nice. seems the "intermediate blocks" are in for this show!! Yeah, that one's real. I know the owner, Bobby Spedale, and he's had it for years. I was at the show and took nearly a thousand pictures. I may try and post up all the 69 and 70 pic's I took later. There were some nice ones. A few even did hard laps around the track. I remember two '70 Mach I's, a '69 GT-350, and a '69 Boss 302 doing laps that I have pictures of.
