It is in the "Livery and Mercantile" shopping center at the Auto Enthusiast in Danville,CA, it goes from 9am-3pm. To get there take the Sycamore Valley Rd. exit off of I-680 and head west. More specifically, from 680S take a left at the ramp, make a right on San Ramon Valley Bl. and then a left at the next signal which will take you into the shopping center(hopefully you can find us from there). I 680N directions are the same except you will want to make a right at the top of the ramp. Registration has been full for a few weeks now but we have alot of great benefit drawing prizes(such as field level Giants tix), great silent auction items (such as a $200 gift cert. for Maier Racing) and tech seminars at 11am, 12pm and 1pm. We will have approx 90 cars there, a nice mix of early and new mustangs(a few other guys from 98cobra.com are in the show), stock and modified. We will also have a number of Bosses, Mach's and Shelby's (AC Cobras and Mustangs). The shopping center is a nice shady area with lots of nice shops and place to eat, make a day of it. It will be a little skewed to early mustangs but there are 20 or so late mustangs registered. If you decide to drop by feel free to come say hi, I will be the only guy under 25 (I'm the youngest guy in my club) wearing one of the light blue "show worker" shirts. I own the burgundy '65 coupe that was parked next to John's blown LX monster at the 98cobra.com show back in June. Hope to see some of you there. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>UKCobra</b> <br /><small>Member # 1240</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,5,18,29,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by Jimbo:<br /><strong>Just wanted to let you guys and gals know about a car show my car club (Bay Area Mustang Assoc.) is putting on this weekend. <SNIPPED>.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Hi Jimbo,<br /><br />I'm there, this will be the last car show I will be entering in the US, looking forward to it.<br /><br />Mark <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Jimbo</b> <br /><small>Member # 1456</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,5,19,0,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Cool Mark, I think this will be a great last U.S. car show for you.

See you there.<br />stangspdstr- the show is open to all years and types of mustangs and cobras. Unfortuneatly, the show has been full for two weeks, the only downside to the nice location is that we are limited to only 90 cars. I suspect there will be a decent showing of mustangs in the non show area too, there was last year. Keep your eyes open for show flyers for next years(2003) show. Many BAMA members like to go to the Fosters Freeze events, one of us usually puts some flyers on his or her windshield. Or better yet join our club <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> , that way you cant miss out on next years show. Hope to see you there anyway. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Cobra-Jeep</b> <br /><small>Member # 1482</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,7,22,30,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> too bad its on a sunday otherwise i'd get my dad's cobra and represent <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>blown fifty</b> <br /><small>Member # 1344</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,11,21,1,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> was at the show it was a good turn out lotta fun <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Ruben</b> <br /><small>Member # 1088</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,11,22,10,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Nice turn out in Danville today. What's the story with bench seats in Mustangs? I thought there were only about 300 produced. I saw two 65's with bench seats there. Does anyone have numbers on this? Also, I didn't see any 1984-85 GT's with 2.3 turbo there, are there any left?

Congrats go to UK Cobra who took home a trophy with his Cobra pace car and to Cobra 427 on the trophy he took home with his Bullitt. I think there was one 2.3T GT at the show, I think he is a member of DVMA.
