Mustang people “in the know” already know that we’ve lost a major player in our hobby with the passing of Ron Bramlett. For those active in the Mustang show and club world, Bramlett was bigger than life, thanks to his years of appearances in various Mustang magazines. But his work inventing “Restomod” versions of the Mustang and his efforts in the building of his family’s Mustangs Plus restoration parts business helped turn Ron Bramlett into a household name among enthusiasts.Insiders will tell you that it was more Bramlett’s many friendships and key roles with the Mustang Club of America that made him such an icon in the Mustang hobby. With this episode, John and Mike wanted to get you some of that insider perspective on the life of Ron Bramlett, and to do that, they had to “Get Smart” – as in get Bramlett’s lifelong friend, famed Mustang journalist Jim Smart – to come on and offer up some unique insight. Listen in and see why all Mustangers should know about and appreciate what Ron Bramlett meant to the Mustang world. 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

Road-trip warriors who are familiar with driving in “The Mitten State” – or even billboard spotters who travel up and down the I-75 corridor – have likely either been to or have seen signs for Frankenmuth. This Bavarian-themed little town in The Thumb area of Michigan is well-known as the home to Bronner’s, “The World’s Largest Christmas Store” as well as the mega family-style restaurants Zehnder’s and Bavarian Inn, where you can get their “World-Famous Chicken Dinners.” But for enthusiasts, the big attraction is the yearly Frankenmuth Auto Fest, held on the weekend following Labor Day. It’s actually a three-day event full of food, fun, music and cars that draws some 2,500 vehicles and 150,000 people. It began nearly four decades ago as a main-street fundraiser for the Frankenmuth Rotary Club, Lion’s Club, American Legion, VFW and the Michigan Heroes Museum, but has now grown into a huge event managed by over 500 volunteers and now spilling into and filling the town’s sprawling Heritage Park. If classic American Iron and pre-1987’s are your favorites, then you’ll want to head to town on either that Friday or Saturday. If you’re more into modern-day muscle, the show field opens up to all makes and model vehicles up to current model year on Sunday. If you can manage to pull yourself away from the car show, downtown Frankenmuth offers plenty of shopping, dining, and entertainment for the whole family. With a population of just over 5,000, it’s small-town quaint with big-time appeal. In addition to Bronner’s and the chicken dinner restaurants, there a local brewery, specialty stores and even a wine-tasting shop.For show-goers, the Big Block Party is held Friday from 5-10 p.m. on Main Street. Saturday is the BIG car show, and on Saturday night there’s a live band under the pavilion with dancing, food and beverages. (Frankenmuth is the home of rock band Greta Van Fleet.) On Sunday they have another car show concluding with a 1 p.m. people’s choice awards ceremony where some 60 German Steins are the “trophies.” The event closes with a tribute to Veterans. In this episode, John and Mike take us through the Mustang photos from the event taken by noted Ford car-show photographer Bill Cook. We couldn’t help but notice that this fall’s Mustang show-car footprint was dominated by the 1971-73 “Big Horses” – more and more of which seem to showing up on the show circuit. So check out the Stangs seen at the Auto Fest – without having to walk miles to see the Mustangs or gain all the calories from eating one of Frankenmuth’s world-famous chicken dinners! 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

Ask any Ford fan about their favorite Mustang Pace car and they’ll say it’s the 64-1/2 Indianapolis Pace Car, the 79 Indy Pace car or the 94 SVT Mustang Cobra Indy Pace Car. But Mustang Pace Cars have paced many other races beyond the Indianapolis 500 and one man – Marty Mieras – has a collection of them whose rarity and pedigree will amaze you. Marty also happens to be the president of the West Michigan Mustang Club, and likely the hobby’s most well-versed expert on Mustang Pace Cars. In this episode, John and Mike ask Marty to reveal the amazing stories behind his one dozen Mustang Pace Cars – wait, make that a Baker’s Dozen, as Marty admits to recently chasing down yet another ultra-rare pace car! Listen in until the end of this educational interview, and you’re sure to learn more about Mustang Pace Cars than you ever thought possible! 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

The Woodward Dream Cruise is billed as North America’s largest one-day automotive event celebrating the classic car culture. With the Motor City’s famed Woodward Avenue known as the birthplace of the American auto industry, it only makes sense that this annual summer mega-event takes place in the metro Detroit area. Held on the third Saturday of August each year, the Dream Cruise attracts some 1 million people from across the globe and 40,000 classic, custom and collector vehicles of all kinds – from hot rods to muscle cars and everything in-between.The cruise route itself covers a 16-mile loop along Woodward Avenue just north of Detroit through multiple suburbs starting in Ferndale, heading 8 miles up to Pontiac and returning 8 miles back. For Mustang fans, the big attraction is Ford’s Mustang Alley along Nine Mile Road in Ferndale, where hundreds of Mustangs and Ford performance vehicles are on display. Podcast co-hosts John Clor and Mike Rey walked the alley in a recent episode to introduce you to some of the people who you’ll meet there and to hear their Mustang stories.But many of you have asked for a closer look at the cars both in Mustang Alley and out cruising along Woodward, so in this episode John and Mike offer a glimpse at some of  the Mustangs you may have missed seeing at this year’s Woodward Dream Cruise. It’s all thanks to the photos we received from Bill Cook, a Ford retiree and superfan whose Mustang and Ford car show event photojournalism helped make John’s Enthusiast Section on FordPerformnance.com so immensely popular before Ford Racing’s pivot to motorsports only website content. Take a look at the some of these cool Mustangs Cook spotted both in the alley and actively rolling along Woodward on cruise day. 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

Well, it seems lots of Mustang people liked our recent announcement that the Mustang Owner’s Podcast was planning to sponsor the official re-launch of the International Council of Mustang Clubs (ICMC) with a Club Summit Meeting at the Halderman Museum this fall. So many, in fact, that invite requests and event expansion ideas quickly filled our inboxes! Some of that interest came from attendees at Mike’s annual Midwest club seminars held just outside of Frankenmuth, Michigan each winter. But with the additional interest from so many other clubs registered in the ICMC, we now HAVE TO RESCHEDULE the event to accommodate everyone and their ideas. As in previous years, this important annual seminar will be a highly productive gathering of Mustang and Ford club leaders from across the globe to share information, challenges and best practices that can help make our efforts in the hobby more successful. With Ford Racing taking John’s Club Connect program ‘in-house” for a revamp, this is the perfect time for the ICMC and the Mustang Owner’s Podcast to take the lead in mapping the future of the Mustang club experience. In this episode, Mike and John explain the reasons for moving the summit meeting from this October to next May, and some of the challenges involved to expand this event to make it even bigger and better! All interested parties are invited to attend this unique Mustang seminar, with a Show & Shine, museum tour, informative presentations and special guests. You can join us for this one-of-a-kind gathering in the Club Room of the Halderman Mustang Museum in Tipp City, Ohio (located about 15 minutes off I-75 just north of Dayton), on Saturday, May 1, 2027. Can’t be there in person? You can also participate online via ZOOM! Whether you plan to join us in person via ZOOM, we simply ask that you email your request with the name of your organization and the name, email and cell number of your participating representative, and if you plan to attend IN-PERSON or via ZOOM.

What could be better than a road trip for a late-September getaway weekend surrounded by hundreds of Mustangs from across the Midwest in a picturesque setting along the Mississippi River at the Treasure Island Resort and Casino in Welch, Minnesota? Well, if you add in 35-plus hours of pure pony-car fun activities leading up to a spectacular Saturday All-Mustang Car Show, the answer would be that it can’t be beat – unless you could keep some pesky rain showers out of the weather forecast. That’s precisely what Podcast Co-Host John Clor experienced recently by attending the Mustangs At The Island Show that featured a poker run, cruises, entertainment and  dinners, plus a Mustang show with everything from classics to late-models and just about everything in-between, as well as vendors, food trucks, raffles, charity fundraisers and music. John set up a Team Mustang Meet & Greet display with a free Mustang poster giveaway at the show. He shared a booth with his longtime SVT friend Tim Stieve, who was there representing Team Shelby Great Lakes (which had a group of members participating in the event). John also served as the event’s Keynote Speaker offering a fun-filled “61 Years of Mustang” presentation and a free keepsake at the Sunday brunch.While the on-and-off morning showers did keep the car count down a bit, by the time the clouds cleared, the crowd began to grow for a grand show with some interesting Mustang owner stories and lots of really nice cars. In this episode, John shares some of his photos from the event, and reveals that Team Shelby Great Lakes plans to team up with the host Lake Country Mustang Club to put on next year’s Mustangs At The Island show August 27-29, 2027.👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

On any given weekend in or near major metro areas all across the country every summer, you can find local Mustang clubs hosting their big annual car show. Mustang fans need to know that you don’t have to be a club member to attend, so if you see a gathering of Mustangs in your area, you’re encouraged to stop and check out the show. Podcast hosts John Clor and Mike Rey have been personally involved in this part of the hobby for decades – with John serving a variety of on-site Meet & Greet functions for Ford, and Mike actually hosting shows when he was president of the Mustang Owners Club of South Eastern Michigan. They still attend many of these regional shows yearly. When John was invited to set up his much-traveled 10x10 Mustang Meet & Greet display at the North Coast Mustang & Ford Club of Ohio’s annual show, he loaded up his Ford Club Connect Transit van with posters and headed to the Lorian County Community College in Elyria to mingle with hundreds of Mustangs and fans at the club’s 20th Annual All-Ford & Mustang Show on a sunny Sunday in late July. At the last minute, Ford’s Special Vehicle Registry team asked to join in, and the club accommodated with double the display space. And a bit more to make room for a special display car that SVR drove there – a prototype Dark Horse SC right out of the Ford Racing garage, as it was before any of the SC’s had arrived in dealer showrooms.In this episode, John tells the story of how the Dark Horse SC wound up at the show and shares photos that he took of some of his favorite Mustangs he saw on display there. Beyond the North Coast Mustang & Ford Club of Ohio providing all the bells and whistles of a great club show, it all just goes to show why attending your regional Mustang Club show is always a good idea: You never know what you’ll see there! 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

With the explosive growth in the fan following for 3rd generation Mustangs over recent years, it’s no surprise mega Fox Body Mustang shows would become must-see events. So, in the wake of the annual success of Foxtoberfest (check out our Podcast from the 2024 gathering at the Charlotte Motor Speedway), a group of Fox enthusiasts from the Detroit area decided to put together a Motor City version of a FoxFest and hold the show at the recently decommissioned Ford World Headquarters. It was patterned after the popular Mustang Memories shows hosted by the Mustang Owner’s Club of SouthEastern Michigan on the back lot of Ford’s famed “Glass House” HQ.But after 3 years there, the Motor City FoxFest was forced to find a new venue with the closure of that property due to the Ford World Headquarters move to an ultra-modern massive new facility on the automaker’s Dearborn engineering campus. While the new Ford HQ does not have a wide-open paved area to host a big car show, the Ford Experience Center (internally dubbed the FXC) located just across the street does. So event organizers negotiated with Ford to host its 4th annual Motor City FoxFest on the three large parking lot next to the FXC and adjacent to the Henry Ford Museum’s expansive Greenfield Village grounds and parking area. John and Mike visited this year’s FoxFest to check out the new venue and all the great Fox Body rides and SN95 Mustangs that were on display across the three show areas. Enjoy this episode’s visual tour as the boys talk you through the great photography by Ford Marketing retiree Bill Cook, a longtime contributor to John’s FordPerformance.com “Enthusiasts” section.

Any true Mustang fan knows about Ford’s long-running “Mustang Alley” gathering every year during Detroit’s massive Woodward Dream Cruise. Technically on a street and not in an actual alley, Mustang Alley stretches a few blocks down East Nine Mile Road where it intersects Woodward Avenue at the very spot the Dream Cruise begins in the suburb of Ferndale, Michigan. While it’s sweet to see 700-900 Mustangs angle-parked on both sides of the “alley,” what’s even sweeter is to experience the Mustang-loving vibe that this popular event gives off each and every year. It doesn’t just come from the cars – but from the owners and fans you’ll find there from all corners of the globe. As John and Mike always say, “Everyone has a Mustang Story,” so for this episode, walk along Mustang Alley 2026 with them as they get you the stories behind some of the Ford insiders, known players in the hobby and dedicated owners that they found there on that warm August day. Sit back and follow along to see if you recognize some of the people and the cars that made Mustang Alley 2026 so much fun! 👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

Have you ever done anything in the Mustang enthusiast community that turned out to be a transformational experience? You might be surprised to know that through the stories that many of you have shared with us, it happens more often than you might think. That’s why when Gale Halderman’s daughter, Karen, showed us a thank-you note she received from Sharon Hansen after a visit to the Halderman Mustang Museum with her husband and her son, we knew you’d want to know about it. John and Mike had enjoyed a wonderful friendship with the late Mustang designer and have been frequent visitors to the Halderman Barn Museum, managed by Karen and her own daughter, Lauren. There’s no doubt the place has special vibe all its own, and the note from Sharon to Karen explains it in a way that helps bring Mustang’s history to life, both through Gale’s “Mustang By Design” book that she bought that day – and though the kindness that Karen offered the touring family on the day they stopped by. This episode shares the thank-you note and explains how the museum tour provided Sharon an epiphany of sorts about the Mustang, its design history and Mustang people like the Haldermans who power Mustang fandom and can make impactful connections with people. Our thanks to Sharon Hansen for allowing us this glimpse at her Mustang story that she never expected to be made public.

The Mustang Owner’s Podcast took its Meet & Greet tent on the road again this year – this time to the annual Mustang Memories & All-Ford Show hosted by the Mustang Owners Club of SouthEastern Michigan (MOCSEM). Normally held behind Ford’s former HQ known as the “Glass House,” the Memories show was moved to the nearby AAA Headquarters after Ford had moved into its new World Headquarters on its Dearborn design and engineering campus, and slated the Glass House for demolition.Beyond the venue, the date for Memories 2026 was also moved to the Sunday before Detroit’s famed Woodward Dream Cruise instead of the Sunday after. Regardless of the changes, Mustang Memories drew several hundred cars and even more attendees to share a Sunday of sunshine, Mustangs and classic Ford camaraderie. John had to work Ford’s Meet & Greet tent for Team Mustang, while Mike set up the Mustang Owner’s Podcast tent right alongside to meet with fans, do live recordings of their Mustang stories and even welcome some Mustang celebrities – including Kevin Marti of “Marti Report” fame, SN95 Chief Designer Bud Magaldi, plus Mustang II Designer Buck Mook and SN95 Interior Designer Emeline King, just to name a few.We’ll take a closer look at the cars on display at MOCSEM’s Mustang Memories 2026 in an upcoming episode, but this time around we wanted to give you an idea of the Mustang vibes at this nationally known event, and see what is was like to hang out with the podcast team for a day of Mustang show fun in Ford’s own back yard.  👍Please Like this video and Leave a Comment 🔔 Subscribe to the Mustang Owner’s Podcast 📢 Share with fellow Mustang enthusiasts.

After a recent post by Ford Motor Company that one of the World’s Fair Mustangs was being inducted into the prestigious National Historic Vehicle Register, our resident pony car expert – famed Mustang journalist / author Jim Smart – reached out to say there was a notable omission in the story. And that was that very little would be known about these rare cars without the detective work done by one very dedicated owner. You can check out the Ford story here: Only a Handful of Cars Have Ever Received This Honor. This 1965 Mustang Just Joined Them. So, in this “Get Smart” episode, John and Mike got in touch with Jim get his insight on the so-called “World’s Fair Mustangs” and exactly who had uncovered all the background info on these special cars. And yes, the Mustang Owner’s Podcast had explored the story of World’s Fair Skyway Mustangs before. Just go back into our Spotify playlist to hear our fascinating interview with Gary Schweitzer, who just so happens to own one of these cars and a world of information about them.

One of the most difficult decisions any Mustang owner will ever make is deciding if and when it’s the right time to sell one of their beloved pony cars. Sometimes it’s a financial decision, other times it’s driven by a need to thin the heard. Or maybe it’s just time for  change. Regardless, of the reason, selling more often than not becomes a source of regret. We’ve all heard, “I should have never sold my (fill-in-the-blank) Mustang!” In this episode John and Mike interview Shirlee McArthur, whose award-winning (and ultra-rare) 2000 SVT Mustang Cobra R has been wowing car-show audiences all over the country for years now. John has seen it in person and because of its pedigree, believed Shirlee would NEVER sell this car – until he‘d heard she’d actually put it up for sale! Hear why this car is so special, why Shirlee considered selling it – and join her in trying to help the guys determine how you can know when it’s the right time to sell your Mustang. What about you?

In this episode, Mike and John get an exclusive interview with Shelby super-collector William Deary. Smitten with the style and sound of a Shelby GT500KR as a teen, Deary shares the story of how later in life, he had amassed what’s considered the finest collection of Shelby branded memorabilia in the world. While both John and Mike have visited Deary’s amazing assemblage of Shelby vehicles and materials known as “The Carroll Collection” near his home in Jackson, Michigan – William reveals he’s moving and improving the collection to a new bona-fide museum home in South Haven along Michigan’s southwestern shoreline. Hear about Deary’s remarkable Shelby journey as well as plans for regional Shelby celebrations leading up the Detroit’s famous Woodward Dream Cruise week in mid-August in this insightful interview.

With June 2026 Mailbag content included in our inaugural “Roundup” episode, John and Mike field some thought-provoking questions and comments in this July 2026 Mailbag episode – especially one involving an All Wheel Drive variant of the S650. Of course, few really know if such an initiative exists but we offer a scenario why it might make sense if a four-door Mustang is really being considered – and how that might even cover the rumors about a Hybrid. A frequent commentor weighs in on Ford’s “No More Boring Cars” mantra – and asks, are Fords really boring or is it the product choices and marketing? Plus, we reveal what determines our on-site car show episode selections vs. studio podcasts, and even discuss if perhaps adding a few Tech Session episodes – perhaps including the expertise of our friend Jim Smart, should be added to our mix.
