As a trick, display it "as new" with all the window stickers & all and see how many folks want to buy it thinking it's a new model. lol......

What a great opportunity. Was that corral an exibit that your local Mustang club put together or something for Ford?  How many miles on the 40th now?
That red paint really pops under the lights. Thanks for sharing.

The local club has been a participant for last couple of years... not associated with the Ford display.  Matter of fact, all the American makes were upstairs and the local club was downstairs with the imports, an SCCA display, and various other vendors.
My 40th has 27k miles on it, but only 3k as a bonafide "40th"!

Got my car back after two weeks at the Show!  Our display was right near an exit door -- show ended at 6 pm, we all drove out at 6:15!
All in all, a great time...  now just waiting for some Spring cruising time!
