Come to Carlisle, win a Merkur!

Post by **DPDISXR4Ti** » Mon Mar 22, 2010 3:54 pm

Well, it worked out so well at our 20th Anniversary in 2005, I thought it would be a good idea for Carlisle to give away another Merkur at this year's Silver Anniversary of the Merkur. I made Mike Olyer (aka Merkur Depot), aware of my search, and Mike stepped up to the plate and delivered.

Yesterday afternoon, a red '86 XR4Ti in near-mint condition, made the journey from Ohio to Carlisle, where it will remain on display and then given away at the All-Ford Nationals on June 6 at 3PM.

More details and pics to follow. I just wanted to get this out there today, and kick any of you off the fence, if you were unsure about attending this year. Go register now before you forget:

Thanks Mike!

Ahhh...this is the car from Arkansas originally, isn't it?

I'm gonna win it, and return it to it's rightful home!

Props to MCA for being awesome!

Indeed it is. The bottom side of the car looks as awesome as the top.

Sooo, when someone wins a car at Carlisle, does that include trailering it home?

No. If you win, just come see me. I'll drive it to my home and abandon my other one.
