Ford Mustang 50th celebration gets two venues

Ford is planning for a big turnout next year, April 16-20, for the Mustang's 50th birthday party. So big, in fact, that it secured two venues on opposite sides of the country: Charlotte and Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

German Parts Pillagers Roam the American Southwest, Sending Treasures Home For Future Car Museum

While that's going on, crews of European gearheads also roam the wrecking yards of the Southwest, filling shipping containers with parts to ship back home; I know of a trio of Swedes who come to Colorado every year and ship home tons of parts, but they've got nothing on this pair of Germans.

They were kind enough to send me a bunch of photos of their most recent trip, so let's see what their enviable lifestyle looks like.
