Ok, here's a few more---Barry White (from Barrys Street Rods or SMC I think- he's a local down this way) picked some cars for awards--he presented--was neat. I had a different impression of him from watching him on TV, he was a very cool down to earth guy all weekend and I really enjoyed getting to know him. His crew were also very good guys--I never would have thought they could or would appreciate a build in progress like mine, but I was wrong. It's nice to be surprised now and again.

There were guys taking what looked to be professional pics--still trying to track down who they were. I'd like to get my hands on those if I could. If they are available, once I get them I will put them up. Thanks for wanting to see more--coming from this community, that is a great feeling!

Very cool Doug!!
Yeah, I used to watch that show that you are talking about with Barry White and his crew. They do a lot of resto mod type cars. Congrats!

Thanks Man! Barry was surprised-I think a lot of folks were, when I took it out the Auto Cross and it performed well. One of his guys said to me later in the day that when he saw the car he automatically thought it was strictly show and that it would never work on the autocross. I heard that a bunch from spectators as well.
