Calling on all Mustang SSP owners, bring your cars out! It doesn't matter whether they are restored show cars, projects in process or daily drivers, there is a place for them all on the show grounds and everyone appreciates seeing them. I showed my car for several years in the daily driver class while I was working on it and I can't tell you how many folks came up to look at it and talk with me.

Pre-registration is now closed but it's never too late to attend as there will be day of show registration available. You WILL enjoy the entire experience including meeting with fellow hobbists, officers and others who know these cars and share your enthusiasm for them! Don't sit on the sidelines, be a part of the hobby and have some real fun before the long off-season starts.
