i know people like that. they are just trophy hoarders. that's all they care about. they think their car IS THE BEST. they
don't think twice about ripping apart someones car and sometimes enjoy doing just that.
i'm not one for the whole trophy thing either. i'm not in it for the competition. i just enjoy driving my car and going to
cruises. i do go to a few shows each year. mainly because a group of friends will go to. if i were you, because that guy
stormed off like that, i'd keep those trophies i that back seat all the time
just so he has a little reminder
last year, 2010, i finished restoring my '72 Challenger. this is a numbers correct 340, 4 speed car, F7 green with air, am/fm rear defog
and NO RALLYE package. yup that right, plain Jane 340, 4 speed car. i left nothing untouched when i restored my car.
i wanted it as if you drove it off the show room floor (with maybe a better paint job
). i wanted to bring it to
Carlisle when it was all done. the the "stock" i took second place to a 73 Challenger, 318 auto car that was painted viper red. oh well,
whatcha gonna do
. i can go on about how i scrounged the swap meet for hours trying to find the "correct bolts
for the car. but i understand that only matters to me, and maybe a dozen other people. but one needs to remember,
that's what the "people" liked better, at Carlisle at least. this guy needs to remember it's the judges choice.
