| Cruzin' Grand is one of the biggest weekly cruise
nights in Southern California. Its held each week on Friday
night. This week, the 14th of July, the Pantera was a featured
mark. We were expecting a huge turnout, but unfortuntely, we only
had about 14 cars. We did have a ton of people and we had a great
time.
Officially, the Pantera is NOT "authorized to participate" in
this event becuase its supposed to be an event for American cars
only. As luck would have it, our very own Bret Gann has some
connections with the organizers and he got the rules bent. Thanks
Bret.
Aside from getting us into this venue, Bret also coordinated the
borrowing and setup of popup-canopies, tables, chairs, his own motor home
and probably a few other things. Thanks to all those who made the
the event flawless for all attendees.

The canopies provided great relief from the blazing sun. Doreen's
restaurant served up a wide variety of pizzas. Plenty of drinks were
on hand for the thirsty crowd

The Panteras drew the usual throngs of admirers and inquisitive
folks. These cars never cease to amaze!

New member Steve B, got our club's award for best
modified Pantera and he took a best of show award presented by the event
organizers. Cogratulations Steve. Sorry for the crappy
picture, there was something wrong with my camera (the dork holding it).

New member Leon, got the club's award for best stock Pantera. Sorry,
no picture, my camera malfunctioned again. Did anybody get a picture
of that?
|
|
Also, I have to mention this, I managed to convince one of the firefighters
to take my camera up to the top of the hook & ladder to get some aerial
photos of the Panteras. Regretably, i must of set the camera up
incorrectly, becuase the photos were completely unusable.

and i'll get them posted to this page.
thanks,
mike
