on the National parade in Washington, DC. Sounds like those of us that did not

participate missed quite an opportunity

parade

Great pic, Tony

SANDSTON PARADE

We had 14 cars for a rather hot day. The

problem was the lack of shade while waiting to start. It was a nice parade with

a lot of people watching. I think all the

cars did OK except mine which kept falling asleep.

OTHER Mustang news:

Mustang Club of America’s display drew a

lot of attention from attendees at the Grand opening of the Mustang Owners

Museum (MOM). Some of the thousands of visitors attending Museum opening

were from Australia, Great Britain,

Switzerland, & The Netherland.

For those who were not able to attend the opening ceremonies, I was one of the 1st

500 to enter the Museum and receive a

Museum license plate. The Museum building is large with lots of floor space to

display the many different years and models. The Mustangs on display were all

rare including 1 of the original 1964 ½

Black Mustang convertible with mirrors enabling you to see the side chassis

modifications and under the radiator to

pull the Mustangs around Ford’s rotunda building of the 1964 World’s Fair in New

York. Another of the rare Mustangs was Lee Iacocca’s 2009 Silver 45th Anniversary

edition. If you are into viewing beautiful,

rare (1 of a kind) Mustangs this Museum should be on your Bucket list.

Lee Iaocca’s 2009 Silver

Our September 14th Bass Pro Fall show is

listed on MCA’s website under Events calendar & the Car Club Council of Central

Virginia website.

In May’s “Mustang Times” issue is a great

account, with many pictures, of the MCA

“Mustangs Take Flight” show at the Lone Star Flight Museum, pages 14 to 26.

Those interested in the various design facilities and equipment Ford uses’ for new

Mustangs take a look at the article

“Supercar GT500 by supercomputers” on page 11. The Mustang Owners Club of

Great Britain celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2019 on pages 48 to 50.

Also take a look on page 82 of the May

1966 rally with over 1,300 Mustangs.

FRIED CHICKEN AND BEER

It was a perfect blend of beautiful

weather, awesome sounding cars, and the laughter among friends. This was the

scene on Sunday, May 19th, when a total of 22 CVMC members and guests

gathered for the cruise down Patterson

Avenue to Tanglewood Ordinary Restaurant.

After everyone enjoyed the delicious

lunch, several people then proceeded to

Hardywood Park Craft Brewery for our private tour. With the 1st of 3 samplings

in hand, we viewed the brew house,

fermentation hall, quality assurance lab, ingredients processing area, and

packaging station. Quite an impressive sight to walk among all those high stacked

wooden beer barrels.

Interesting tidbit of information disclosed

that some of the barrels are sold after initial usage. Great project idea for my

outdoor patio table!

JUNE 2019 Car Hobbyist News From the

Council The council sent a letter to Governor

Northam in May asking for an Attorney General’s opinion on the

(mis)interpretation of the antique vehicle

registration law by Warren County. Antique owners have actually been

ticketed for having passengers and

personal belongings in an antique vehicle – both of which are not against the law.

We are waiting to hear from the governor and I will post his response.

The EPA has until June 1 to come up with a new E15 gasoline rule that will allow for

the year round sale of E15 gasoline. Currently E15 sales are banned during the

summer because it produces more

pollution than during the winter months. A draft of the proposed rule has been sent

to the White House Office of Budget for

review. The proposed rule has been published and put out for public comment

– the comment period ended last month. Congressional approval is not required.

The process needs to be completed before

June 1 which begins the summer months as determined by the EPA. Summer and

winter gasolines have different blends. No one is sure what will have to be done if

the rule is not in place by June 1.

Have you heard about ICE-ing? This is a

new trend where big trucks – both diesel and gasoline – back up to Tesla charging

stations and block the electric cars from

using the chargers. This has become a big enough problem that these nine states

Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii,

Illinois, Massachusetts, Oregon, Rhode Island and Washington plus some cities

have passed laws against ICE-ing. The I, C and E are taken from internal

combustion engine.

In Loudoun County, Virginia an SUV was

towed for blocking a charging station. The station was on private property with signs

stating “ELECTRIC CAR PARKING ONLY –

TOWING ENFORCED”.

Electric vehicles do not use gasoline so their owners are not paying a gasoline tax

that is used for roads. Legislators in

Illinois have proposed increasing the registration fees for electrics from $17.50

a year to $1000 a year. Electric vehicle

owners have been given tax breaks to entice them to buy the vehicles. I’m sure

this is one reason people are ICE-ing them. The feds offer up to $7500 tax credit for buying a plug-in vehicle whether

hybrid or all electric. The credit depends on the battery size. The cost for buying

these vehicles is higher than for a gasoline vehicle. A bill in the General Assembly in 2018 would have allowed for a $3500 tax

credit for the purchase of an electric vehicle but it was killed in subcommittee.
