Last Wish Mustang Restoration

March 29, 2012

On April 13, 2012 a classic car dream will come true for Linda Howard.

Bill and Linda Howard by their 1968 Mustang

Earlier this year, Linda was diagnosed with a brain tumor (Stage 4 Astrocytoma) which could not be fully removed in surgery. When asked what her last wishes were, Linda said she would like to see the completion of her and her husband’s 1968 Mustang and be able to drive it to Kentucky where the couple first met. Bill purchased the car nine years ago for the couple’s 30th anniversary and has been restoring it to look like a 1967 Mustang. The car is almost complete, needing only a fresh coat of paint.

Friends of the Howards are raising money to cover the paint job and the car will be revealed as a surprise for Linda at a car show to be held in DeLand, Florida. After the car show, the couple will head to Kentucky visit family.

If you are interested in attending the car show or donating funds to cover the finishing touches on the car, please contact family friend, Michael McFerrin, at (321) 695-2167 or mikesgoldinfo@yahoo.com.

The car show will be held at McDonald’s (2697 S. Woodland-Ave Boulevard, DeLand, FL 32720).

Le Bellezze d’Italia

February 20, 2012

This weekend ClassicCars.com had the pleasure of sponsoring Le Bellezze d’Italia, which is one of the most fun events we’ve attended. I may be biased as I am easily swayed by food and there is no quicker way to my heart than a spaghetti sauce cook-off.

The Arizona American Italian Club coordinated the show to benefit St. Mary’s Food Bank and Operation Homefront, which provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our service members and wounded warriors. The club was able to raise over $8,000 for Operation Homefront and collected 12 huge boxes of canned food items for St. Mary’s Food Bank.

The Maseratis, Ferraris, Alfa Romeos, and Fiats attracted a huge crowd, which you can see in the gallery below. For those who hate looking at beautiful cars, the club also hosted bocce ball games, virtual racing, raffle prizes, a wine tasting, and of course, the spaghetti sauce cook off.

Make sure you don’t miss out on events like this one! Check the ClassicCars.com Event Calendar for upcoming shows, swap meets, and more.

Cycle and Car show for Daniel Lopez Jr.

February 13, 2012

Great weather and a good cause led to an awesome turnout at the Car and Cycle show for Daniel Lopez Jr. on Saturday, January 11.

The Nancy Perry Productions car show was held at Chili Bombers Neighborhood Bar and Grill in Glendale, AZ to benefit Daniel Lopez, a five year old boy diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor at the age of two. He has undergone six surgeries and continues to fight the returned tumor but he remains in high spirits. Channel 5 News did a great story on Daniel’s love of school and dream to become a police officer, which can be seen here.

The unity of the car community was shown in the variety of cars displayed. There was something for everyone at the event – from hot rods, to muscle cars, to mini trucks.
