There’s an old saying that clothes make the man, but when it comes to accessories, men like their bling with a little horsepower. Or a lot.
For most guys born during the baby boom, the Ford Mustang was the ultimate dream car.
“It’s an American icon, ” said Joe Grace, president of the Blue Ridge Mustang Club of Asheville. “It’s like girls and Barbie - guys and Mustangs. “
Vintage and modern Mustangs will be the stars of the show at the club’s first Mustang Club of America-sanctioned event Friday and Saturday at Gene Lummus Harley-Davidson in Swannanoa. The event will raise money for the Avery King Memorial Playground. The playground would honor Avery King, of Weaverville, who died just before her second birthday after being struck by a car in Georgia in May 2006.
