There appeared to be a burnout contest in the hotel parking lot last night

Steve,

Get us some espionage photos of what’s under the car cover on stage.  National Inquirer will pay you big $$$.
Thanks,

Rumor says it’s supposed to be a “new”Cobra Jet. Will find out tomorrow
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

Went to Dream Cruise Friday evening and most of all day Saturday. Drove the whole route twice and bailed out on the 3rd run when the car began to get a "little warm" in the bumper to bumper Dream Crawl. Didn't go into the "Mustang Alley" but drove past it, mustangs are far as the eye could see, what I didn't see were a lot of Shelby's, at least early Model Shelby's, I saw several replicas or clones, but only 3 what appeared to be original early cars, a possible blue 1968 GT350 convertible, a 1969 GT 500 Red, and a black/gold 66 Hertz car. I didn't get a chance to see any of the cars up close, but the there of them looked "real". I saw lots of the later model cars, they just look evil and sound even better, it is amazing what 50+ years of technology can bring to the table.
The place is an automotive overload, cars are parked everywhere, every shape and size and color imaginable and even some unimaginable.
The weather Friday was a little "damp" at times and of course when I drove back to the hotel I got caught in the rain.
A fun time and I'm hoping to go back next year

To say Woodward is big is an understatement, trying to find anything is tough because of the shear size and logistical nightmare of getting from point A to point B
Ford had displays up and down Woodward, in side streets, in parking lots, and this doesn’t begin to cover all the private parking and displays.
Everyone should go at least once
