Each participant will receive a special participation shirt (there will be a participation form created which will be mailed to each participant). Vehicles in the Evolution Display will not be considered for class participant ballot awards! Vehicles in the display will be considered for celebrity pick awards! Participants will receive a special event participation gift related to the event! Owners will be recognized in the program.

You must still register and can use the ITC Registration form and please note on the form, that your car will be in the Evolution Display.

Owners of cars in the evolution display will receive their event entrance window decal in the mail prior to the event so there will be no formal registration at the gate as usual for these cars as they can go direct to the Evolution Display area!

Evolution Display Thunderbirds must be original non-modified cars either restored or un-restored original cars. No modified Thunderbirds are to be placed in the Evolution Display as requested by Carlisle!

Anyone----anyone

If anyone is interested, let's get going!!!!!


Please post as sticky, George... :D


Thanks,


Don
 
I am more then interested in making the trip down to New Jersey for this. I have a 1992 SC. The only question's I have are: My windows came tinted from Fords, and I recently painted engine parts to make the engine bay stand out a little bit more, is that ok? Other then that, the car is bone stock with the exception of a aftermarket head unit, but I can put the stock one back in if its a problem... pretty easy to do. I will talk to my dad about this tommorow and see what he says. Please get back to me.

thanks

Jean.

I exchanged emails with Don at the end of last week for my all stock '89 to be part of the display. His wife is going to update the list this week. There are still quite a few slots open, hopefully we can get them all filled.

All depends on what's painted...

What did you paint???? Is the top and IC tubes painted??? If so, and they look nice (VEERRRRYYY NICE), you might get away with it.

You could always leave the hood closed. Again, we are getting to within 3 months of the event. We need to fill these spots.


Call or e-mail Don Holton (info in first link of post), and put your name in.

See what they say....

The SC, Top, Tubes, Intercooler and Windshield washer fluid containter are painted. All is aluminuim and the lettering is Ford Blue. It looks amazing, but I will contact Don Holton tommorow night.

thanks
 
Newsflash!!!!

We are still in need of a 1992 Thunderbird for the Evolution Display for the Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. Anyone going or thinking of going, please repsond.

Thanks again for your help in fulfilling this special Display for the 50th Anniversary.

I was going to make the trip, but since I am only 17, its going to be really hard to come up with this extra money to go. I would have really loved to go.
