Fabulous Fords Forever Show - SoCal

cnsheets · 04-20-2012, 02:01 PM

This may not be the right forum for this, and I'm sure an admin will move it, however, I just wanted to remind everyone:

The 27th annual Fabulous Fords Forever show is this Sunday from 10:00am - 3:00pm at Knotts Berry Farm in Buena Park California. While I'm sure there will be plenty of classic mustangs and such, I suspect there to be a few new Explorers as well.

Here is the flyer: Attendance is FREE

I have actually participated in the show with my explorer

*rhauf* · 04-22-2012, 08:52 PM

just got back... i participated with my explorer... did anybody see me?

i was the only explorer there!

cnsheets · 04-22-2012, 11:04 PM

I was there. Spent most of my time looking at the classic mustangs and cobras. Where we're you parked? I tried looking for some explorers but couldn't find any other than at the ford tent and the Stitchcraft one just around the corner from the ford tent. I even looked over by all the broncos thinking there might be some there. I was surprised there were so many ford probes there, and even a mustang II. Sorry I missed ya.

Here's the Stitchcraft one I took pics of:

Its the same Stitchcraft Explorer that was at the Sema show.

Its like a cow died inside. Everything was leather/suede and it had an IPAD in place of the MFT screen but a pretty standard radio mounted below it.

Hey I saw your explorer!!!

I was wondering if you were a member here, I wanted to talk to you but didn't look like the owner was around when I was checking it out. Nice rig, set up for some SERIOUS trails.

I was couple rows over with my white merkur "Sierra rs"

Is this where the term "Monkey Wrench" comes from?

The interior of that Explorer is sick! I miss that kind of color in the interior of the Explorers. I think it's way better than the all out black. Is it possible for me to get my interior like that?

Notice the control on the drivers seat to control the message!

**FROADER** · 04-23-2012, 05:30 PM

I used take my Galaxie to that show, but stopped going after I sold it. There are way too many mustangs.

Its not the classic mustangs that's the problem. I would love to see more of those. Its all the 80's, 90's, 2000's that's the problem.

*R.J.* · 04-23-2012, 05:51 PM

There's not much 90's mustangs. And most of the 2000's are cobras. 2005+ is the biggest crowd. And I don't see how there can be too many of any mustang

The gt40 I wouldn't mind seeing more of. As well as nicely done focuses

Anything is possible for the right price

When the Mustang side is bigger and out numbers all of the other Fords combined, that is too many Mustangs.

My Uncle still goes every year with either his '55 Victoria or '64 Galaxie XL.

Here is what I used to take.

yeah i spent most of the time walking around the show and checking out the other cars, saw your merkur and a few others there too, so i probably walked right past you!

I was in the "other SUV" section.. they don't have an offical explorer section. just mine and that one new one in the above pics. we need to round up more people from explorerforum to enter their explorers next year, heh.

well you missed me at the show, but you can ask questions here

here's a video of it at TDS a couple months ago.

YouTube Video

cnsheets · 04-24-2012, 11:12 PM

*R.J.* · 04-25-2012, 01:02 AM

In one of the YouTube videos of cars leaving, there's a saleen explorer that pulls out. I don't remember seeing it parked, but it came out of the lot.
