WOW WAY to go Budman the only thing that beat you was a tribute to Baldwin / Motion you should feel proud Bro !!!! WTG them were some nice ones your Killer G3 beat !!

Thanks Limey. That Camaro has been in the show 8 straight years. I think my paint was better but you get points on display and obviously his is way better as I didn't have one. Oh well time to drive it now and enjoy it. Just little show and shines now I think. To much work for those big shows.

To be honest with you I forgot how much work it was. The last time I showed a car it was my 63 Nova SS in 1994. Wow don't need that hassle, I'll just do show and shines now.

Wow that was some stiff competition. Its nice to see one our cars put up against the typical muscle and do well. Good Job. Why are those shows alot of work? Do you have to detail the car out?

Some car show people will complain to you if you have dirt on the panel beneath the battery tray, I had it happen to me. JB

Yes you have to detail very well. For instance I had a door closed and my trunk closed and a friend who used to be a judge told me if I didn't have them at least popped I would lose points due to the fact they would count as unfinished. You have to have everything clean and showing. My downfall was no display and the judges couldn't judge my underside (which is very clean by the way) because my car is so low.

good job hope i can get mine close to as clean looking as you did.
