Car Show and Cruise - August 23, 2008
Location: Chino Hills, CA

The City of Chino's 6th Annual car show and cruise takes place every August on the cross streets of Central Ave. and Chino Ave. This hot day brought out every kind of car enthusiast. From the old to the new spread amongst each other around the City Hall building .Our main focus was, of course S197's but there weren't many to be found. There were a few 07-08 Shelby GT500's, new a GT500KR and of course my GT. The best part of the show was the plethora of 1964 to 1973 Mustang's. Other than the mass of Mustangs that came out to represent, it was a car show for the masses. From Chevy Nova's to customized Peterbuilt Semi-trucks. What I liked most about the show, was that you could leave your parking spot and drive around to show off your car. Most of them with open headers and race gas to show. I was able to get some photos of the Mustangs at the show. We here at S197 Performance support all years of Mustang's even though we do not offer parts for them, as of yet. Check out the photos below of some of the Mustangs that came out on this hot day to represent the Mustang community.
