With the upcoming 45th Anniversary of the Ford Mustang taking place in April of 2009, Mustangs Across America has organized a cruise across our great country starting in my favorite city Las Vegas and ending in Birmingham, AL to commemorate the event.  The end of the cruise will mark the beginning of the 3-day 45th Anniversary event put on by the Mustang Club of America at Barber Motorsports Park on April 16-19th.  The 45th Anniversary event will be the biggest gathering of Mustangs on the planet with as many as 6000 Mustangs from all over the country and world attending the car show and open track events.

The Mustangs Across America cruise will start with a kick-off and welcome reception in Las Vegas Friday April 10, 2009 with the actual cruise starting the next day.  After leaving Las Vegas the Mustang convoy will head to the historic Route 66 outpost of Hollbrook, AZ.  From Holbrook the drive will go through Albuquerque, NM with a stop in historic Sante Fe before getting to Santa Rosa, NM for much needed rest and relaxation.  The next day the convoy will be headed through Amarillo, Texas and then on to a stop at the Route 66 Museum in Clinton, OK.  After the Route 66 Museum the pack of Mustangs will head for Mustang,OK for the overnight stop.  Following the stop in Mustang, OK the convoy heads down through my neck of the woods Dallas for a lunch stop.  After lunch the stampede of Mustangs will make the 3 hour drive east to Shreveport/Bossier City, LA for the next overnight stop.  After a night of partying and gambling at the River Boat casinos in Shreveport the pack of Mustangs head for their final stop of Birmingham, AL kicking off the 45th Anniversary event at Barber Motorsports Park.

    I will try my best to get my 69 on the road by then. Most likely I will not make it until 2011. It would be so much fun!
