Cruise-in Results and a special announcement

Posted on July 20, 2014 by Ann

We would like to thank all the participants who spent their day with us at the Albertson’s Cruise-in in Oregon City. It started out as a drippy day but we had 141 participants who said they wanted to come! During the cruise-in we had a very special announcement to make……..

On April 12 this year to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Ford Mustang, we attempted to break two Guinness World Records. The Most Fords in a Parade and the Most Ford Mustangs in a Parade. Our documentation was sent to Guinness and the wait started. They said the answer would come in about 12 weeks. Well….the answer came last Thursday and we are happy to announcement that Guinness accepted our documentation and we are new record holders!!!!

The record for the Most Fords in a Parade is 829!

The record for the Most Ford Mustangs in a Parade is 766!

All parade participants will be receiving a letter around August 1 with instructions on how to access the Guinness site to order a participant certificate (note that there is a cost associated with this). We suggest that you go together with friends or other car club members on one order to decrease the shipping fees. You will be able to order more than one individual certificates on a single order.

Again…….thank you to all our participants!!!!!
