1984 - '85 - '86 - '87 Garden State Mustang Club at ITT in Clifton, NJ

[Richstang]

This was my first all Mustang car show in 1984. My Grandfather worked at ITT and mentioned there was a show scheduled on the weekend. My parents drove me there and I was besides myself. It was the coolest thing to see all these cars in person, instead of just pictures in a magazine. The photos are not great (from my pocket 110 camera), but are better than nothing.

I thought the painted chin spoiler on the '68 was awesome back then.

The following year 1985;   '68 GT350 Acapulco blue

[Richstang]

67 in Nightmist Blue and a 68 in Wimbledon White. I think this '68 was owned by a forum member (GT350SHELB?)

Last for 1985 is Dan "in real life" Reiter's '67 or '68 convertible Mustang / Shelby clone.
(I do have some Mustang photos from these shows, if anyone was there with their car.)

Next up, 1986; This is beautiful black '68 GT350 with saddle interior. There can't be too many of those in that color combo.

'69 GT350 Royal Maroon. another car that always caught my attention. (Dude, I want my black leather vest back!)

'69 GT350 Gulfstream Aqua....(We can see the tail end of Dan's convertible)

1987; Here's that '69 GT350 convertible again.

'67 Acapulco Blue;
Definitely a repaint on an early car with the slant grille and a hint of what appears to be an upper scoop light.
Interesting to see the gold painted from rims and silver rear rims from a '69-70 Shelby.
