Tri-County Mustang Club

"Where fun is not an option!"

Club Member of the Quarter

Every 3 months, we will be featuring an individual in the Club that will have the honor of being our Member of the Quarter. Just think, He or She will have national and worldwide exposure! How's that for being nervous about getting picked? We (The Officer's) will nominate 4 individuals and narrow it down to one lucky person. The question is.......................... will it be you?

The Officers of the Tri County Mustang Club are pleased to announce Larry Pearson as our Third recipient of Club Member of the Quarter.

 

aka "The Blue Genie"

Ask anyone in our Club which Mustang Larry drives and you'll get the same answer "da bluewon"!

First of all I want to say Congratulations Larry, for being the Club Member of the Quarter. You are well deserving of this honor and we are glad you are part of the Tri County Mustang Club. As a matter of fact Larry and his wife Linda, are always at the local Cruise-Ins and Car Shows. Now that IS dedication!

When I asked Larry the question of how he developed his passion for the Mustang his reply was "I have always loved the Mustang even though I strayed away for other models in the past.  I seem to always migrate back to the Mustang because of it's history and beauty." How true that statement is! He has owned 3 previous Mustangs before his current Steed and they were a 1966, 1967 and a 2004 Mustang. His pride and joy (or shall I say their) currently is a 2009 Vista Blue Metallic, GT, Charcoal and Black Interior with a 5 Speed Manual Transmission. This car is a beauty!  They purchased it in May 2009 and have been busy with add-ons since. When asked about his add-ons he remarked "At the present time I have installed a BBK Cold Air Intake, Flow Master Exhaust and numerous chrome engine dress-up items.  I changed out the gear shift knob to a white retro knob, added Sequential Tail Lights and the Upper and Lower Billet Grills. Recently I re-tuned to 93 Performance Octane with the SCT SF3/X3 Power Flash Tuner.  I have added gold GT 300 Rocker Stripes and I plan to add matching 14" Super Stripes this summer.  I also plan to change out the tires and wheels and install lowering springs in the future."  Geez Larry, is that all?

As for his hobbies, he has a few, such as watching the Alabama Crimson Tide. But his most enjoyable hobby is cruising and showing his Stang with his fellow Tri-County Mustang Club Members. When I asked him what is favorite Cruise song was he quickly told me, "My favorite cruise song is by Booker T and the MG's, Green Onions."  Which, just by coincidence happens to be the song you were listening to, while reading this article.

So the next time you stop by one of our Cruise-ins or Car Shows, just look for da bluewon. You can be assured Larry will be near this pony with the biggest grin on his face, willing to proudly show off his pride and joy!
