Black and White

No, it’s not what you are thinking. No problems with the police. The trip into Carlisle was pretty uneventful. Just some heavy construction delays for about 6 miles on 81 before exit 159. I made the trip with 5pt0joe. He owns a 1990 SSP so I did have a...

Road ready

The winter was long and hard on the old triple white fox. At some point late last fall or over the winter I noticed a spot of fluid under the right rear tire. I thought nothing of it. Perhaps, I thought, it was just a residual spill from an...

Tent @ Carlisle All-Ford

As I mentioned in the forums, I have reserved a tent for our 2009 trip to the Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. The total cost was $160. If you would like to contribute to the cost you can catch me on site there. Although, it’s never been a hard requirement to...

Carlisle banner

This year one of the Carlisle policies for having a club tent requires having a banner. Not a bid deal but the problem has been getting the inspiration for a design. I want to do something different but also not too specific as my plan is to hang it...

1990 7-up Registry helps spread the word about our Carlisle plans

Steve Cracknell from the 1990 7-up Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible site and registry was kind enough to post on his home page information about our plans for Carlisle and even included a link over to my Carlisle page. Steve has been very supportive of me in the past and...

Registered for Carlisle

I have finally put my planning for Carlisle into full gear. I have been ramping up for this through the first two weeks of March. I registered my car and did the updates to this site to make the planning official. These things always take a little longer than...

Carlisle coverage in September 2007 Mustang Monthly

I have been waiting for this. I figured one of the magazines should be covering this years Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. One of the Mustang Monthly people was around the Saturday of Carlisle and I saw him snapping pictures of the four feature convertibles in Building T. The article covers...
