Adventures!

A new feature for the site! Several of our members have the spirit of adventure and this will be the place to share them.

Disco Prom at the Reynolds Museum!

It was a great time at the Reynolds museum 70’s prom last Saturday with about 70 people, costumes, bellbottoms, hippy chicks, prizes, snacks and a lot of disco dancing and some 70’s rock as well.  Even if you weren’t into the dancing you had the museum essentially all to yourself to wander around and talk about your favorite 70’s car.  Three distinguished members of the Calgary Thunderbird club were in attendance and got up to dance the hustle.
They even had Tequila Sunrises and The Godfather cocktails available to get that 70’s vibe. Cool action man. You should have been there.

Model trains and tiny cars!

Sue and Bill Jr checked out some awesome trains and scenery featured in the homes of Calgary Model Railway members. Lots of great scenery, and even a few TBirds and other Ford products in the mix.

Classics in the winter!

Jim took the Mustang out for a drive a few weeks ago to enjoy a cruise before the snow started flying.

Wheels for Meals June 11th

Calgary Meals on Wheels hosted their first show and shine to raise funds and Rosie won the Kids Choice Award. Congrats to Ian and Janice!

On the Road – by Jim Jenkins

Busy day this Saturday driving around getting classic car supplies.   How hot was it you ask? It was so hot my Thunderbird was overheating in the traffic so after talking to the Morpac boys, we decided to stop at Peters Drive In.  Tracker, our club mascot, was the hit of the large crowd at Peters which started the conversation about who owned the Thunderbird in the lot.  After hamburgers and drinks the T Bird had cooled down enough to continue.  Tracker wanted to drive the way home, only one problem though, he’s too short to see over the dash. 

Mustang vs. Camaro discussion with Chris Yeo at the Belmont Diner in Marda Loop, where everyone is either a “Love” or a “Dear”. Get there early to get a seat.
