Fabulous Fords Forever! at Knott's -- Sunday, April 30, 2017
 
Fabulous Fords Forever at Knott's Weekend 2017

Registration for the 2017 show will open in January 2017.
  • Bring your Saleen -- no matter its condition -- to the largest non-judged show of its kind in the world!

Pre-Register -- you can do so online or download a form at http://www.fabulousfordsforever.org


SATURDAY, APRIL 29:

Club Members: Join us for a members-only dinner event -- RSVP Required for each person in your party -- Send an email to jimd@soec.org or call 714-369-8621 for more info. Casual attire, pay-your-own meal and expect to pay $12-20-plus for your meal per person. Space is limited, and spouses (or significant others) and family are welcome. We expect a group of about 50 people. More info to be announced.


SUNDAY, APRIL 30:

We'll do an early morning cruise to Knott's (see lower map below) -- Steve and Molly are expected to attend -- unsure if they'll do the cruise, but if you want to cruise to Knott's, meet at Saleen at 7:45 a.m.; planned departure by 8:00 a.m. Everyone's invited. You must be pre-registered for the show and have your confirmation card hanging from your rear view mirror as you enter the Knott's gate.

We will need some volunteers to help parking from 5:30 - 10:00 a.m. and you get a free VIP lunch with journalists and celebrities plus preferential parking, but we need a commitment by April 4. You must also have your car registered for the show, or get a ride with someone (let Jim D. know if you need a ride).

We might need additional helpers starting at 7:00 a.m., so if you arrive early, please let Jim D. know you can help and we'll give you a vest or a task to help with .

I may still go though...traffic shouldn't be bad since it will be Sunday. The thought of taking a long drive to a car show sounds very good :smile:...

Hey man! :smile:

I was ready to pay to enter both cars but then several emergencies occurred so I had to put the registrations on hold :frown:. Things were finally squared away this week but it was too late. I'm still going though! Looking forward to meeting you and seeing your beauty in person. :smile:

Steve Saleen's signature
 
I really want to get the glove box signed for 89-299. I can't bring the car at the moment unfortunately but does anyone know if Steve is willing to sign something like this at one of his sittings? I know he is always willing to sign the cars at the end of the show but I already have a conflicts with the Open House in September (regardless which weekend it is) and hate to wait another year if I can help it. I am planning to drive over and back from Las Vegas on Sunday if I am pretty sure I can get this mission accomplished. He was very gracious and signed my Explorer when I had it and getting the Mustang signed is pretty much the last thing I need to complete the car. Appreciate any feedback anyone can offer up. Thanks all.

Tell you what - if you cannot get it signed, Steve comes to the C&C each third Saturday of the month. I'll happily hold it for you, get it signed and drop it back in the mail for you if that would help....

Let me know if you need the help..

That's cool - see you there ! PM me if you are free on the 22nd...:)

WILWAXU 04-14-2017 06:25 PM

Even if you are not in the show, you are still encouraged to come out. This show is HUGE, and free for spectators. There is plenty of parking at the mall across from the event.

Jim D. 04-29-2017 09:09 PM

Update: No dinner tonight (Saturday) as it seems most people are scattered around the Southland, but tomorrow after the show, hang out at the Saleen tent and a group of us will walk over to TGI Friday's and grab a bite together.

Call or text me for details if you get lost: 714-580-3572

People must have directly went to Knotts Berry Farm from their separate locations. Sorry for the confusion.
