Grabber Orange Sweeps the S197 Classes
Chris Byrne (CelticNut) and I attended the annual April Mustangs Plus car show yesterday in Stockton, CA. It was a beautiful clear day in the high 80's with 166 cars showing and hundreds of people walking around. When it came time to announce the awards both Chris and I were surprised at the results...

Chris took best in class for 05-07 coupes and I took best in class for 05-07 convertibles! Here's a couple of pics:







Our next show is this coming Sunday at the Sacramento Raceway here in CA. This one should be a blast as well!

It's actually a two-tone leather wrapped Classic Design Concepts light bar purchased through MRT-Direct. MRT purchases them "raw" from CDC and then wraps then two-tone to match the exterior of the car. You can find them here at http://www.mrt-direct.com/.

If you'd like to see a couple of other pics of one on my car you can check them out at http://www.grabberorange.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=868.

The shop owner said that there were 166 cars showing. I'd have to say that there were about 25-30 S197's there.
