If it’s JULY then it’s time for one of my favorite shows! Back again with the FRANTIC FORD .. 1 Shot presents …Artie’s Party/Pinstripes Jamboree, presented by PPG Automotive Refinishers & Racing Junk to make a little noise. The Team Frantic Ford Mach 1 Mustang Funny Car was set up outside Artie’s Party, and started up its 3,000 plus horsepower Nitro power plant before the start of each auction to raise money for Central New York Ronald McDonald House.

We were auctioning off a chance to SIT IN THE FRANTIC FORD driver’s seat during each start up. IT WAS A SMASH HIT! The crowds were packed over ten people deep and 100 ft. across the front of Horticulture Building to see and hear the Frantic nitro noise. The sound echoed through the fairgrounds which were jammed with over 8,000 hotrods and over 70,000 spectators.

With each auction of the driver’s seat and a talented group of Facebook Frantic Ford artists from around the world donating their work along with some of Frantic Ford sponsors donating product, it was a successful total package. Check out who also got in the HOT SEAT !! … Gene Winfield & Charlie Hutton

The end result was over $7,000 raised, adding to the final total of over $70,000!

Thanks to Art Shilling for listening to my ideas and having us back again ..you are the Best !
