The Southern AZ Panteras, and our sister organization, the Fun Italian Automobiles of Tucson (F.I.A.T. Club) sponsored a pair of runs up Mount Lemmon. The town up there is called Summerhaven, and it is a welcome respite from the blistering heat of the Tucson summers.
For the 4th of July parade, we had 4 participants:
- Chuck and Family - '74 Toyota Landcruiser
- Dave C. - '67 Ferrari 275 GTB 4-Cam
- Axel - '15 Mini-Cooper Convertible
- Stephen - '86 Corvette C4
It was a blast. Dave was led by Herbie the Love Bug, but the Ferrari made a splashing statement.
The FIAT Club was the hit of the parade. It was like one of those old-time parade you participated in when you were growing up in Northfield, Ohio....
Then on 9 July, we had the "real" run up Mount Lemmon. Unfortunately for both the Pantera and the F.I.A.T. Clubs, the Porsches dominated the participation with two.
We had: - Chuck - '73 Pantera L
- Dave K. - '82 Fiat Sport Spyder 2000 (Fiat 124)
- Axel - '14 Porsche R4 Cayenne Hybrid
- Kurt - '86 Porsche Rennsport Carrera
- Dave C. - '72 Ferarri Daytona
