The groundbreaking ceremony for the new Mustang Owners Museum brought out a tremendous crowd.

I would like to know if FORD is supporting this or its just these guys? I think they put it in the worst location! Unless you are going to a Nascar or NHRA event NO one is going to that part of N. Carolina. Location, location, location, is the #1 rule of real estate so it seems they missed that class. The Corvette Museum is very accessible from multiple states unlike having to drive all the way over to the East coast. Orlando would have been 100 times better, Las Vegas too umm millions of tourists every year in both locations. Indianapolis would even make sense. Financially Michigan could not support a Museum at this time or if FORD was funding it they probably would build it there. Sorry, but that part of N.C. is not a vacationing destination.

 

here's the whole story

There’s nothing that diehard Mustang owners appreciate more than a chance to share their passion for the car with others fans.

That certainly explains why more than 100 of the Ford pony cars showed up on a dusty strip of land in Concord, North Carolina recently. The gathering, which drew classics like a ‘67 GT500, a ‘70 Boss 302, and a ‘78 King Cobra was held to celebrate the groundbreaking of the new Mustang Owners Museum, as highlighted in an Independent Tribune report.

Slated to officially open in the Fall of 2017, the roughly 25,000 square-foot facility was initially set to be called the National Mustang Museum. But organizers later decided to change the name to make the facility more inclusive for owners and fans of the car as well.

Kudos to Steve Hall and Ron Bramlett who came up with the idea. We can’t wait to take a tour!

 

Can't wait, would love to make a trip out there to see it.
