Congrats SN65

[MarkM66]

Who won the cup?

[68protouring454]

the red chevy nova, my bad your right the chevelle, lol

[MarkM66]

From another thread, is said the red Nova got a top 3. The '67 Chevelle with the tt's won it. He spent the most with Year One, .

[SN65]

Wayne is on his way back from the Year One Experiance. He would have been quite a bit farther along except for the fact that he toasted an outer wheel bearing on the dully.

Anyway...

The SN65 took first in our catagory and also placed second for best in show. Which is all fine and good, but Wayne said the best part of the weekend was just hanging out with all the nice people he met.

i am not suprised ..
only about 1% understand the talent and quality that it took to build that car . and for what i have seen most judges are not that 1% .
i could see that the mustang and chevelle placed the nova looks like a almost stock bodied car !

I saw that chevelle at SEMA,it was outside stuffed with a bunch of imports and 4x4s.When we checked it out nobody was even around.The Cuda' on the other hand was one of the star's of the show.Funny how things work out.

So, what are you trying to say??

Most car shows are political in one sense.. Everyone thought Bobby Alloway would win "street machine of the year" last year, but it went to pigford and his Nova (who got screwed the year before)..

The Chevelle had a ton of work done to it.. about the only fault I found was that is sits too low in the back.

Still, not the results I was expecting.

Hi Paul,

Conspiracy theories abound. But no one (Ignore that man behind the curtain) will ever know for sure.

Who knows what happened. Wayne said "I can't believe that bob's Cuda wasn't in the final three. It deserved to be up their, should have been up there...... but wasn't" :-(

Do you ever wonder if "who you know" or "who you are" is more improtance than the car itself? I know that it is at the local level. Everyone tends to vote for their buddies first and the car second.

I think that the final vote should be an open ballot. Kind of like the hall of fame voting. That way everyone can see how people voted. That being the case, they had better be able to justify thier vote.

Sigh....

I have to say that it does not matter that Bob's Cuda did not win/place/show in the Year One Cup. Does that detract from how wicked Bob's Cuda is? Absolutely not. The fact that a "Conspiracy Theory" has been formulated about what it takes to "win" the Cup is irresponsible and uncalled for. I would still take the Mule, 4 Power Tours, thrashed unmercifully, criticised for being too quiet and all the other negative crap that has been written and said about it over any other show winning car. It's my prize winner. But that's just me.

I think car dudes everywhere acknowledge Bob and his Cuda. If I am not mistaken, It was on the cover of a major publication with the title "The Baddest Car Ever Built". (or something close to that). That is a mountain that is attempted to be climbed by only a few, paved with lots of money,patience and a very, very good idea and so much more than I can guess or describe here.

That crap about needing to spend the most with Year One to qualify or win is a giant load of Horse Manure.

and that's all I have to say about that.
