Went to a car show last Sunday. In the 2009+ car group. Ended up with 5 Corvettes, a Challenger, and a new Camaro ZL1 along with my Boss.
Most popular question -- "What's that ring on the front bumper for?"
Best comment - from a boy about 10 years old "Look Dad, this is a race car!"
I have 3 ring binder laying on the radiator cover with the '69 Boss and my Boss pics on the cover, Crow harness installed, and my helmet on the center counsel.
Didn't bring home any hardware, but its tough keeping a track car clean.
Some sweet cars though. A black/gold Trans Am like Smokey and the Bandit, 68,000 miles, professionally restored -- looked like it just came off the showroom floor.

Car looks great. I hate parking on the grass. Did that at a national mustang show where they made me park my lowered Boss on the grass and while leaving it caught the passenger side Kooks side pipes on the concrete and yanked it loose.
 
Nothing special but I found a set of European tail lights for my 2011 GT. Not a lot of info/pics on these available so I thought I'd share. Previous owner put the black tail light trim on them which I will probably end up removing later. Interestingly enough the P/N on the tail lights leads back to the US '10-12 tail lights. Don't think you can order them from Ford so hopefully they don't get damaged.

I didn't even know those existed.

Very different...
Never seen them before. Who is the manufacture of them.
 
Just info for everyone...I picked up a new OEM Ford AC compressor from Rock Auto for $294....with shipping it was around $310....much cheaper than from Ford, they wanted over $600. Part number confirmed with Ford before I bought it

Pretty good deal. I ended up paying $336 for a new compressor assembly from Tasca.

I bought mine a new extra wide 4 post lift since somebody put wheels on it so fat it no longer fits.
