You spent all day yesterday cleaning the Mustang. You skipped breakfast to get here on time.
First order of
business:
Find the food sign!
This show is presented by our friends at The First Pennsylvania Mustang Club.
First PA members are not allowed to show their cars for trophies, just for display.
Every year there is an extensive craft and auto parts flea market. This year was no exception.
If you see member Steve David sleeping in his car, it's because he went back and spent his mortgage payment on some GT40 heads!
As far as I could tell, this little number is a cross between a Mazda Miata and a 50's era Cadillac....
This show wasn't strictly for the 4 wheel crowd.
Plenty of impressive hogs were on display...not to mention some pretty cool tattoos!
Legend has it that Rock Star Alice Cooper owned
a Mustang which he autographed when he sold it...waddaya think....authentic?
Nope, I dont know Cholo, but Im a sucker for cool graffics....and this picture looks just like the owner...
This definitely was not a 'Ford Only' car show. The General Lee and his Mopar pals were hangin' around...
This speedy Honda was one of a about a half dozen imports parked on the edge of the show field by the restrooms...
The Mustang II gang was in attendance this year!

Dennis Brooks' blue
' 65 shown here earned yet another trophy!
I actually found a small piece of lint on the trunk of Flavio Carlini's pristine 1969 Sportsroof!
OK, you're Bob and Natalie Gomez and you own a fleet of collectable Mustangs...which one do you bring to Coopersburg? -the ' 73 of course!
Bargain hunter Harry Henrich slammed on the brakes of his ' 69 Grande and headed
for the flea market immediately...how much 1969 Ford weather stripping does one man need?
Joe Michaud netted a trophy for his black ' 69 Mach 1!
Kim Green's white 1976 Cobra II was lined up next to trophy winner Steve David's 1977 Mustang II Ghia.
Steve (shown in his beloved Ford
Motorsports shirt) accepts his award - congratulations Steve!
I know, I know, I should have asked distraught red hat woman to move
...oh well
The V.F.M.C. Presidential Limo was all shined up...
Everytime I get a photo of Pauline Zerbe's 1973 "Big Blue 302", it looks the same as last year's photo! - next year I'm renting a blimp...
Barry Strayer arrived with his ' 93 and I think
poor Barry has caught the serious "car show bug"!!
Gary Woolard's supercharged
' 99 was looking it's usual best...
Devon and Jake O'Donnell escort
Dad and their first trophy back
to Mom and the '95 GT.
Way ta go Jack!
The 2nd annual 'after show' gathering at Fridays for steak and Yuengling was nice!
Pictured:

Jack " I own a Shelby too" O'Donnell's '95 GT Convertible

This a really great show, don't miss it next year!
Phil Phucas pulled up in the ' 88 and a detailing squad (also known as his wife Megan and the children) jumped out and went to work immediately polishing Dad's ride...
