What Makes a Great Car Show? Cars? Girls? Giveaways?
The AmericanMuscle.com Car Show had it all, plus a $9,000+ to Homes for Our Troops Charity
MALVERN, Pa., July 22 -- Most car shows involve an hour of frantic polishing, followed by an hour of aimlessly checking out the competition, and then finally, a good nap. But with 150 of the sweetest 'Stangs ever to hit the road stationed door to door and bumper to bumper on every corner of the lot surrounded by more than a dozen top Mustang brands, each eager to talk parts and performance, the 1st Annual AmericanMuscle Car Show and Charity Event was set to be something different. Then add a circling helicopter taking photos from 1,000 feet, a free dyno running from dawn 'til dusk, free food for all registered cars, more free stuff than you can carry in a mid-size sports coupe, and a slew of uber-hot AmericanMuscle Girls strolling the lot, showing off their own fox bodies. Now that's a car show.
In a day full of highlights, more than 1,000 showed up on July 19th to watch and talk Mustangs, and show their support for Homes for Our Troops, a charity that buys or builds homes for disabled veterans. The goal was to raise $5,000 for those that have given more than we could ask while defending our freedom. But, when the day was done, AmericanMuscle wrote a check for $8015 to its favorite charity. Adding to this number, the Garden State Region Mustang Club made an additional donation of $850, and an anonymous AmericanMuscle supplier also kicked in a check for $500, bringing the total donation to $9,365 -- a good day indeed.
Of course the central point of the show was the Best in Show competition. AmericanMuscle judges walked the lot all day long meticulously examining every show candidate. In the end, Tony Massimano's fully-custom '69 Mach 1 took top prize.
