Trying to get car ready for a show tomorrow in Effingham Illinois and the weather was not cooperating today. May very well rain tomorrow anyway, but still hoping it doesn't. Last year I got a special award, one of the Top 4 Mustangs. So I really want to go.
Well it rained off and on while going to the show, about 45 minute drive. Stopped at the car wash and took a look and decided it didn't even need a rinse off. Good wax helps
They gave awards to the top 50 and then separate awards to the top 4 scoring mustangs. I got one of those, just like I did last year So it was a cool day.
Got it all set and ready to go to a small show tomorrow. Oh yea, turned 95,000 on way home
Show I went to today was Top 30 and it was participant voting. So hard to get a win at a show that is not judged. 61 entries and I took home a plaque still. I was surprised. There was only two newer cars that took home a plaque, myself and a 92 calypso green convertible
hey i know the guy who owns that vert, he lives here and came to every one of the shows me and a buddy put on. To bad he didnt bring his silver 88' McClaren or the Fiero he has, both are super sweet! congrats on the awards!
Hope it lets up, and good luck if you go!
