You have it now, yep I can see it. You have Car Show Fever. The same thing happen to me last summer. Put the Vette in a show, took home a trophy for the corvette class. Got home, got online then to start to look for local car shows. Yep no cure, you just have to detail your vette and go to car shows now. Congrats on your win :party: and start looking for more shows to go to!!!!

Congrats, Rick. Nice job on the detailing. And to think you were going to sell it just a short while ago....

I got a first place trophy last summer at a local show. Mine was the only C3 there! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice car Rick! Did you get that from SouthernC5? I saved his pics because I want my 71 to look as good as his did. Or, should I say yours does? Anyway, pics look identical and I too was impressed at how good the engine bay looked. Very nice! :thumbs:
