From the Lions Club website:

This years Classic Mustang Features a 1965 convertible Ford Mustang with 3 speed Automatic Transmission. The Car is powered by a 289 Cubic Inch V8 engine, with power steering and power brakes. The car has chrome sport wheels, and is Light Blue with a convertible blue top and beautiful blue newly reupholstered interior. This is a truly beautiful car! Remember those days of cruising down the highway with the wind in your hair. What a ride!

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased easily online here.

Lions Club president Ray Keegan says a group of Lions led by car committee chairman Paul Krueger look across the northeast every year to find the right car, which must be convertibles, V8 and automatic transmission.

"They are very good at screening out the Junkers and the rust buckets because we want to offer a quality product," he says. "We also get tips about available vehicles from ticket buyers and others."
