Title: Mecum Indianapolis in May
Post by: computerworks on April 25, 2026, 10:37:33 AM
SAAC will have a display booth at the upcoming Mecum Auctions in Indianapolis.

We will be there to promote the club and all that we do for the hobby and we will be there on the two key days when most of the Shelby marques cross the block... that would be Friday and Saturday, May 15 and 16.

I will be manning the booth and could use a little assistance. If there is any member who is not going to the Indiana SAAC Spring Fling and will be available on Friday or Saturday, drop me a message of when you're available to help.

I need some coverage for food and bathroom breaks. I'll get you credentials for free admission to the event. If you'd like to spend even as little as a few hours on either day to help, drop me an email to pitcrew@saac.com and we can discuss.

Thanks
Ron

Yes the 70 RARE mercury drag pack cougar xr7 ram air hurst 4-speed convertible will be there as we been correcting the car after a long florida restoration and like usual its always finding the correct parts and detailing to be concours  correct done to fuller rare  1970 mercury  dowa dual exhaust system. This car now has nos tires ,all autolite filters .original headlights ,  dowy autolite shocks,16'' trico nos wiper blades, all paperwork etc etc. Also we been correcting the RARE 70 shelby gt350 grabber orange with factory red interior a 1 of 1 car from oregon OO as this car is the oddest unique color combination shelby ever made and very KOOL looking being a 70 orange black hood stripes with black ford louvers that have been on the car from back in the day. Ron i think this unique odd shelby needs to be in the SAAC booth at indy mecum what u think?

And, Indiana SAAC is holding our 49th Spring Fling just 65 miles south of the auction site. Come see us at Brown County State Park, Nashville, IN.
You can visit Ron in the morning and visit us in the afternoon.
