This past weekend was the time for not only the Fall Harvest Festival I told you about yesterday.
It was also when a Pony Only show was held just a short distance away.
For those of you not in the know, a Pony Only Show is where owners of the Ford Mustang automobile get to strut their stuff.
You're probably thinking "Are they all red?"
And though it is a popular hue, the answer is "no".
They come in all colors.
This "pretty in pink" model even had a "pony" posing under the hood!
The owner of this Shelby Mustang doesn't want his hood stolen.
Notice that heavy chain holding onto it?
Speaking of hoods . . . the promoters of this show encouraged Mustang owners to bring their cars in no matter the condition.
They said whether it runs or not, needs to be towed, hauled on a trailer, is in process of being restored or not . . whatever the condition, bring it in.
One owner apparently took that invitation seriously.
Gotta be a car guy! My first car was a 1968 white Mustang with light blue interior. Loved that car!
ReplyDeleteBut you're from Michigan! Of course!
DeleteJohn's son-in-law is very into Mustangs and has a Shelby; before that he had a Bullitt (Steve McQueen); his dad and he are car guys. My cousin and her husband love Mustangs too and are in a club. I don't understand the love for them; I'm more of a Camaro gal.
ReplyDeleteI always preferred the Chevvy Impalas.
DeleteThe Supernatural car! If you haven't seen the show you won't know what I mean. Dean and Sam Winchester drive the Chevvy Impala left to Dean by their dad.
DeleteTaillight pattern on the old ponies was distinct.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was, Red.
DeleteMy husband is a motorhead. He kept two Camaros for a long time. I drove one, and never again. It was too much 'horse' for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'll stick with my 2002 Highlander.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful cars and I love the little pink pony. The chained hood is a good idea, you really DON'T want someone walking away with your hood.
ReplyDeleteMy Aunt owned two of them, a 64.5 and about 1970. I have fond memories of riding in them.
ReplyDeleteI imagine the Mustangs in poor condition can connect with folks who can give them advice on who can fix their car or how to find parts...
ReplyDeleteI always like the notch-back ones the best. These new Mustang SUVs look terrible. The pony on them is the only thing that says Mustang.
