Yes Steve, you are correct! Pic probably taken in 1996 as I sold the Ranchero in 1997 just before the show that year.

Pete, have you been to FFF show lately? I haven’t since it moved to Irwindale.
@100ford2003 Steve, the FFF show was last held at Knott's Berry Farm in 2018. Due to competing parking with the Theme Park, it was moved to Angel Stadium in 2019. No show in 2020 and then moved to Irwindale Speedway 2021-2024. No show in 2025 due to closure of the Speedway. 2026 was supposedly held in Huntington Beach this past June, but I didn't hear anything about it. The 2027 FFF show is scheduled to be held at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia July 28-31 and will be combined with Mustang Week West Coast according to their Facebook page. This makes sense, as the last time I went to the show at Knott's 2/3rds of the show was late model owner-modified Mustangs. Not very interesting to look at IMO.

Thanks for all the info Pete, I appreciate your research. I’m surprised that i missed the 2019 show as I worked off of Katella where the 5 passes over. I’m not real thrilled about seeing so many Mustangs. I’d have to say that one of my most favorite shows was the Ford100. Plenty of Ford made cars from all divisions and quite a few Canadian made.
Luckily my brother and I were there when the Ford GT was revealed and my bro got to talking with Jay Mays. One helluva fun trip.

For me it's AMX, Dodge, Ford.
Gents, thanks for your replies.
