On very sunny sunday the 16th of May we took my 'Stang to Hartwerd, to the 3rd Ford Meeting at Pyt Jaarsma of Motown Parts. With this meeting he also celebrated the 40th birthday of the Mustang! We went there with my brother René en his girl Susanne and stayed only about one hour as we had to go the yearly meeting of the Lemtra's in Friesland.

I had a little chat with the owner of the white '67 convertible. His car also has the Deluxe Interior, although it does not have the rev-counter and the optional safety lights in the middle of the dash. But it still has the chrome grills with the door warning lights, the parts I am still searching for!

Next to the white convertible you see a very nice blue '67 Fastback. The other pictures show a red Mustang IV with very nice wheels, a great black 1956 Thunderbird, some good ol' Fordson tractors and a small Chevy truck (but what was it doing at a Ford meeting?)

The first official Mustang meeting of this season was a home game for us. This morning we drove the approx 10 kilometers to the Ford Museum in Hillegom with the top on, because the weather wasn't that great and Aimee is still suffering from the flu. Harry joined us in my '67 V8 Mustang convertible.

It was a good meeting, with about 40 Mustangs present I would say. Lots of stuff for the boys & girls to look at, like these great American Racing wheels and some nice engine jobs....

And I bought another one of those nice metal signs, to decorate my garage.
