OCTOBER 8, 2007  SUNCOAST MUSTANG CLUB'S OCTOBER MEETING WAS BE HELD AT QUAKER STEAK AND LUBE (10400 49TH STREET AT US 19). MEETING START TIME WAS BUMPED UP TO 7:00 P.M. EVERYBODY BROUGHT THEIR CAR AND DISPLAYED THEM IN THE ROPED OFF SECTION IN THE PARKING LOT. AS ALWAYS, QUAKER STEAK AND LUBE HAD ALL KINDS OF GREAT FOOD AND GREAT SERVICE. EVERYBODY ENJOYED THE UNIQUE AUTOMOBILE ATMOSPHERE AND HAD A GREAT TIME. WE HAD A DISCUSSION ON WHETHER WE SHOULD HAVE OUR CAR SHOW AS A STAND-ALONE AFFAIR OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PINELLAS PARK BBQ FEST. AFTER SOME DEBATE, WE THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE BETTER IF WE HAD THE SHOW ON OUR OWN LIKE WE DID LAST YEAR. WE HAD THE ENTIRE PARK TO OURSELVES, THEREBY NO LIMITING US TO A SET AMOUNT OF CARS, NO ADMISSION FOR SPECTATORS, WE DON'T HAVE TO SHARE THE STAGE WITH ANYONE ELSE, PLUS WE HAD SUCH A GOOD TURNOUT AT LAST YEAR'S SHOW, WHY NOT DO IT THE SAME FOR THIS SHOW. NOW ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS SETTLE ON A DATE. WE ALSO REMINDED EVERYBODY OF A FEW IMPORTANT UPCOMING DATES: DECEMBER 14TH, OUR ANNUAL TOYS FOR TOTS CARAVAN; DECEMBER 8TH, OUR HOLIDAY DINNER MEETING AT MAINLAND'S CLUB HOUSE. I HOPE TO SEE EVERYBODY AT OUR NEXT MEETING IN NOVEMBER WHICH WILL BE HELD BACK AT AUTOWAY.

OCTOBER 13, 2007  ONCE AGAIN THE MUSTANG CLUB OF TAMPA PUT ON AN OUTSTANDING CAR SHOW AT THE MUSEUM OF SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY (MOSI). IN SPITE OF THE INTENSE HEAT, THERE WAS A GREAT TURN OUT. THERE WAS ABOUT 225 DIFFERENT MUSTANG, SHELBY, AND FORD VEHICLES. EVERYBODY RECEIVED TWO FREE TICKETS TO GO INSIDE AND SEE THE MANY EXHIBITS IN MOSI WHEN THEY REGISTERED. ALSO, THERE WERE MANY RAFFLE ITEMS, DOOR PRIZES, AND A LARGE "FIFTY-FIFTY" FOR EVERYBODY TO ENJOY.
