What club members are proud owners of a 1966 Mustang Convertible Emberglo and a 1967 Turquoise Coupe?

If you guessed Karl and Dotty Mohr, your right on the money.  Members since 1999, the Mohr’s hailed from Indianapolis Indiana, but after 23 years in Florida they consider themselves natives.  When they first joined the club they owned two Mustangs, both 1967 coupes, one of which Karl still owns today and with great sentimental attachment. And as we all know about our own cars they are never really finished, Karl refers to them as “works in progress” and enjoys working on them himself.

As Karl reflected on his membership he says that the  MCA 25th Anniversary in 2001  was a highlight for him, however his best Mustang memory involves driving his 1967 to Nashville for the 40th Anniversary.  “I have a twin brother, John and he drove from Indianapolis for the show. Dave Bishop was a great help in getting the car ready and driving with me to Nashville. Taking the ’67 and meeting my brother was special because our father purchased the car in ‘71 while we were seniors in high school. I told my dad that I wanted that car someday and after he could no longer drive we had it trucked  to Florida in ‘99. Now I’m trying to upgrade the condition and make some modifications for safety and performance.”

Karl and Dotty enjoy spending time with their daughters Melissa and Michelle as well as Chongo the family dog.

Karl is a Risk Manager for an employee leasing company and also enjoys football, GO BUCS, as well as Purdue games. Golfing is a favorite too.
