Get it clean as you can.
Sometimes even the simplest cosmetic mods draw a little more attention.
(louvers, CUSTOM STRIPE JOBS, etc.)
Maybe setup a poster board framed on a stand with a pic of the vehicle and the mods you have done to the car.
Some people even get little model cars identical to theirs, raise the hood, and sit them on the plastic protector that extends inside the base of the hood.
Trophies from other car shows are often displayed once you get going to many of them and win some.
A signature on the inside of the car from a famous Mustang designer if you can catch one helps too, (Carrol Shelby, Jack Roush, Steve Saleen, etc.).
Unfortunately the King Of The Road Carrol Shelby is no longer with us.
Hats off to the best man that ever contributed to the Mustang world.

A naked woman with a killer body would probably suffice...
Of the few shows that my wife and I entered our Stangs in, we always felt that squeaky clean, everything in order plus a well-written/presented list of your mods and kudos to the manufacturers was a no-bull presentation. Trophies are on the wall.

Get there early and get the best parking spot (preferably near shade). Best advice I can give you outside of NEVER stop cleaning! Tire shine is YOUR BEST FRIEND. The more you pay attention to detail the better off you'll be. A great tool that I typically bring with me is a rolling stool. Comes in handy for low parts on the car, especially in a parking lot for a show! Personally, I think stuffed animals are "cute" but tacky. That's old man stuff (*cough*Nuke*cough* lol). Window stickers (original purchase), mod lists, etc are good additions to any car for shows. Any info that can give the attending audience more information about what you have done to the vehicle.

+10000000 on that.
And don't park by trees if you can at ALL avoid them, or on dirt, gravel etc. if they have it and concrete spots are available.
