Z-man Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 I talked with Karen at the Museum yesterday. They are up to 115 cars and weather looks good. They are concerned about parking on the grass. Wet and soggy... Bring a blanket for your baby to park on! Do we know how many of the 115 are Team Shelby members? I have lost count, but I'm hoping to meet allot of my fellow members at the show. Can they park non-car show participants on the grass, and leave the paved areas just for the cars in the show? My Shelby doesn't like to get its 'paws' wet or muddy. Z-man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseygator Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Karen's not concerned about the cars. She's afraid it will tear up the lawn. So she doubts any cars will be on the lawn. Depends on how it dry's over the weekend. No worries... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grass will grow back.....moisture from the grass will get on my cars paint, making the finish non-factory original, and thereby devaluing the cars future collectability!!!! :tease: Z-man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony356 Posted April 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Attention King of Prussia meeting spot folk: I will be at the Rubys lot by 6:30 and will be banging on Rubys door at 7am when they open for some grub. Don't worry though, big guys can eat fast. Departure time remains 8am from the Rubys lot. Weather is looking good and should be a great day. Everyone is still welcome to cruise with the TS King of Prussia group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyEra08 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 I talked to someone yesterday that called museum on Tuesday, he said that they are planning to park everyone on Blacktop since the chance of rain on Saturday, and they suggested that people should get there around 8:15 to get a decent parking spot If it doesnt rain Saturday shouldnt matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyEra08 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Was a good show, very nice when the wind wasnt blowing. Also I heard there was a total of 190 cars that showed up. I couldnt take much pics because my camera was dying, but here are some: Also did anyone know what the "Shelby Seminar" was about that went on from 12:30-1:30?

tony356 Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 What a great day today. Nice job TS Northeast with it's innaugural outing. It was very nice to meet soooo many TS folks today. Even though I studied my TS Login names compared with real names compared with avatar pics, I still managed to forget a few names. Sorry y'all. Thanks for the great showing of guys that met at the crack of dawn in King of Prussia. It was a cool cruise out together. The looks of the other folks on the turnpike checking out the Shelby's was super. Here are a few pictures from today I grabbed with my iphone.

tony356 Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Ok, here was the best part of the day. I met a great guy today and he shared with me a completely remarkable story. This gentleman purchased this 1965 GT350 in 1969 as a used but previously untitled car. He purchased it to race but also so he could use it as his TOW VEHICLE to tow his Austin Healey to and from race tracks on the east coast. Cool right? Well in 1979 it was stolen. A few years ago (almost 30 years from when it was stolen) he got a call from a registry person from SAAC that thought they found his car. Here, the car was on ebay!!! The sellers tried to disguise the real vin info but within a few days of getting the info from SAAC, the owner had the car impounded. Unfortunately, it took several years, many lawyers and of course a lot of cash for the car to be returned to it's rightful owner. I was very humbled that this gentleman would share his story with me. At the end of the day he was kind enough to bring the car over and allow a group of us to snap some shots. I am honored to have met him, hear his story and see the car. Very cool! :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
