This is the official South West Florida PT Cruisers club shirt.

They are based out of Fort Meyers, Florida.

They meet once a month at an automobile themed restaurant in Fort Meyers.

I want one of those Back to the Future t-shirts, or as a sweatshirt.

They are from a 2006 "AUTO TRUCK TOYS" catalog. It was one specifically for PT CRUISERS. You would have to do some digging to see if they are still available.

Jerry, don't know who Ruby is. That Cruiser is a 3D model I found on the web, taken into one of my programs where the color and chrome were added, the pose tweaked and the model cleaned up. Image rendered, sent to FedEx printing for application to some t-shirts for our club. Only three were ever done. Unless I wanted to make thousands, the cost was just too high!

That "Ruby Begonia" phrase was Used by certain comedians during the Burlesque era. It quickly turned into a very popular catchphrase. It simply translates to "do you remember this person or thing". In this case, your club t-shirt.

Do you all still meet at any of the local burger joints?

Funny you mention that. Just watched back to the future for the first time this week. I thought in my own mind it was probably going to be awful so I did not watch it for years. Boy was I wrong!

Jerry, best I could find was 'Ruby Begonia' was started on the old 50's Amos n Andy show and was then used by Flip Wilson in the 70's on Laugh-In. A couple of us still gather at Eddie's and then there is the Dream Cruise. I do one day with the PT and one day with the Magnum.

 

[AceHanlon]

I think you like it hot lol

 

[421 SD Poncho]

Another great t-shirt.

This isn't a club shirt, but the lady PT owners/drivers will probably appreciate it.

I actually googles and saw that one for sale. XXL is too big for me, but I'd love to get that in another size. I wish someone still had those, or the iron-on at least and I could make my own. Oh will. I'll keep looking on eBay.
