grifterkid Posted February 11, 2012 Report Posted February 11, 2012 Hello there to each and every one of you good people...! As you may or may not know the glorious Ford Granada is 40 years old this year (as is the roadway conundrum that is Spaghetti Junction incidentally...!) and I have organised a little meeting/shin-dig to help celebrate this major milestone! On Saturday the 12th of May 2012 from 16:00hrs until 23:00hrs the Ace Cafe in London is the venue for a big birthday bash for the Ford Granada (and Consul and Scorpio of course!) and I would love to take this opportunity to say "please come down to help us celebrate"... Whether you are a Granada owner or not (if you are get the Turtle Wax ready!!!) if you can make it to the Ace Cafe please do as I am hoping there will be a great spread of these even greater cars for you to feast your eyes on! They used to be everywhere but now to see one is a pretty major thing as their numbers have severely dwindled in the last couple of decades... The Ace Cafe is here ( Google Maps Link ) so it is relatively easy to get to... I have no competitions/awards planned as such but I think I may surprise a few owners on the day with something vaguely along those lines but I am thinking that I just want everybody to come along with their glorious cars as they are without having to worry about who's is best and what-have-you...!!! Please do all you can to come to this event and please do spread the word far and wide to all other owners of these most wonderful of motors, I really want to make this as good an event as I possibly can... All the very best. Ash For any questions or info' drop me an email... acegranadas@hotmail.co.uk
Ghia15 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Posted February 11, 2012 Will make a note of that one. My granny will be 30 but got to celebrate the marques 40th.
grifterkid Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Posted March 6, 2012 Nice one Ghia15... I am really hoping to get as many Granada's down there as possible... I really do feel the Granada is the forgotten classic Ford sometimes! Saying that, maybe it's just because there are so few left...
grifterkid Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Posted March 28, 2012 Come on guys, let's see some more love for this meet please...!!! I really want to get as many Granada's out there as I possibly can and I need you wonderful Old Skool Ford fans to spread the word far and wide... Thanks a million in advance, your help is hugely appreciated...

grifterkid Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Posted April 23, 2012 Nice one, I look forward to seeing your beastly Granada... If you could give me reg' numbers for the cars you know will be coming along then I can get you on the list for a guaranteed space on the Ace forecourt...
Admin Vista Posted May 5, 2012 Admin Report Posted May 5, 2012 Happy birthday Granny...................though unfortunately OSF and the Ace Cafe aren't the best of friends after they mismanaged one of their events and then publicly blamed all the resulting trouble on us. Perhaps the reason you're not getting much interest on here.
