Just got back from a Daytona Beach Mustang Club outing at McKenna's Place, one of our sponsors . We lined up our Stangs 1965 thru 2014 outside and went in for some really good food. Approx. 30 plus members attended on this cold night. Two weeks from now we go to a private car museum Club Members only.
Come check us out on Feb. 4th at Gary Yeomans 7:00pm for the CHILI for CHARITY during our Club Meeting. This is for Charity so bring $5.00 with you. Hope to see you there . Feb. 15 2014 27th Annual Mustang & Ford Roundup At Waterford Lakes Town Center. There is a lot going on in our area as you can see. Be a Club Member you get all up coming events and for most we Pony Tail as a Club.
Hope to see those interested on Feb.4th

New Member Near Palatka
Hi, Mustangers. Just joined this forum, hoping to glean some info for bringing our '99 convertible back into sweetheart condition, and to meet up with others from the area. We're near Crescent City, and would like to get to know some other Mustang owners in the area for meet-ups, day trips, whatever.
Hope to hear from you.

Tony and Shirley,
Welcome to the heard. How long have you had your 99 and what are your plans?
As for groups/clubs in the area - there are a number. Try "Goggling" "Florida Mustang Clubs". They are all around you. On the east coast from Jacksonville to Miami and then inland from Gainesville (an all car restoration/hot rod/muscle car group), Ocala, Inverness, Tampa, and Orlando.
The Mid Florida Mustang Club just had an "All Ford Powered Show" at Waterford Lakes this past weekend. Gainesville Street Rods is having a big show March 8th and the Imperial Mustangs of Polk County is having an "All Ford Powered Show" 5 Apr at Fantasy of Flight. If you want more info on any of this, please let me know. Got to get that 99 looking good.

Fl Gator,
We drive a black '99 35th Anniversary convertible that we've owned for about eight years. Nothing fancy (so far), just the 3.8L V6 Automatic, but we sure enjoy top-down days, which (to me, anyway), is just about any day that it's not raining. I discovered way back that the heater and A/C work when the top's down or up. Who knew? lol We live about eighteen miles South of Palatka, so we're kind of out of the way to points West(either have to go around Lake George or take the Fort Gates ferry, which is ALWAYS an adventure). So, Gainesville, Ocala and such require a bit of planning, but points East, South, or North are pretty easy to get to. We moved here from J-ville about 3-1/2 years ago to get out of the city, and love it out here. We don't live in any incorporated town limits, so things are pretty laid back.
As to the car, we're in the process of getting her back to beauty pageant, or parade, condition. New ragtop five years ago (guy in Jax does excellent work and doesn't rape you for money), and presently working on window issues with the rear quarter-windows on both sides. AAMOF, I'm waiting on temp to go up just a bit before going out to start again, which gave me time to jump on here for a bit.
Looking forward to getting to know more owners/enthusiasts. Possibly thinking of picking up an early 'Stang that's for sale near us to play with after I've finished fixing my F250's tranny problem.
Well, if you're ever in the area, Palatka does Third Friday block parties, Cruise-ins, etc for car-heads of all ilks, so give us a shout if you head this way, or we'll catch up somewhere else, maybe.
Be safe.
