Can we meet up before and cruise in together? http://www.aurora-il.org/detail_news.php?newsDateID=1064 If anyone is planning on coming out for this we need to discuss. The Aurora planning committee has some guidelines naturally. As per my original post they want us to keep it to 8 - 9 cars which I understand. I would like it if someone is good with writing to share a one or two paragraph tribute to the Legend for the announcers to read. It would also be cool if someone could video so we can share with Team Shelby. Can you give me a call so we can work together on this an coordinate. 630-329-5563 thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get there early, before 5PM and keep the Camaro's , Firebirds and AMX's away from the ORIGINAL Pony Car! Look for me in my 65 black FB. I think the HEAT kept people away. Although the Mustangs that did come were outstanding! Another reminder that July 28 is Pony Car Night in Lombard. I hope as many cars show up as Downers for that night. Park on Park Ave. just north of St. Charles. The feature band that night is the Cryan Shames. Hope to see you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I was partially submerged in a relative's swimming pool at the time. That whole week was a Hot one! Give me a knock on the head, Rich! I'd appreciate the reminder.

QuadCam Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Hey Rich - Hope you and Tim had a good time yesterday at the EAA show. Lombard was mobbed! Great weather brought out all kinds of cars, and people. One would never know it was Pony Car night, however. Maybe the Mustangs and Camaros where sequestered in a lot somewhere I missed? The only other Shelby I saw was a '07-'09 Black vert. Lots of custom stuff - Lots of old stuff - some real nice, some just bizarre, some just junk. Headed to the "Wicked Nationals" in NJ next Saturday, but I would like to visit Lombard again this season before it ends. -Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes we will get together before the season is over. I would like that, Rich. As for the Cryan Shames, they are better than most bands that started on "America's Got Talent!" ...maybe that's why I was never invited to be a AGT Judge?
