This car was stunning in person and Will and the guys that built it are first class. They didn't know me from Adam and took all the time I wanted to talk about it. I posted this in Al's Autorama thread but thought I should put it here as well. To everyone that considers themselves builders and have people pay them to build these cars take note.
The best part of the show to me wasn't even one of the cars or even this car. I obviously spent some time in the Great 8 area Saturday. All the time I was there I noticed the owner of the Dart. His name is Willie Maise. I could not help but notice what a fantastic time he was having the whole time he was there. He truly enjoyed talking to people about the car and was so proud. He was laughing and smiling every time I saw him. Anything competitive brings alot of drama, especially indoor car shows with this type of award. On the outside it looked as though he could have cared less. He was proud of his car, proud they made the great 8 and was having a blast. That's what this is all about in my opinion. So for Will Posey and Big Oak Garage, not only did they build a fantastic car, they made one owner a very happy and satisfied and gave him a weekend he will I'm sure remember the rest of his life! That's what it's about in my opinion. Kudos Will!
