Yeah, right. How's an old guy with a run-o'-the-mill, high mileage Mag Red coupe with a spray can painted eng comp gonna compete against a young guy with a rare Purkle vette coupe with all o' them custom parts? Oh well, here ya go.





I love your car, but I do like mine too! Good luck at the show.

Jack

Owned mine for about 3 weeks before I entered the Show Division for C5's at Merrimack NH show this past May... didn't expect much out of a car that's been driven cross-country 2x, but sure as shootin'...


2nd Place.

Hey, I'll take it. I realize mine isn't the true "show" car many of the just flat out silly cars seen in this thread are, but given my inexperience and my car's true driver nature, I was very happy with the result!

Kind of a slow year with a new baby and all. went to Cruise In and got a show win in Bowling Green, and then went to Hot Import Nights Night Shift show and got 5th place in my class and also Hottest Modern Muscle (biggest trophy in my collection). Got to have my car on display in the NCM for the NCM Xperience which was very cool.
