Good for you. I feel the same way about my cars. Shows are a lot more fun with that attitude.

Shows are a lot of fun, meet a lot of nice people and answer aq bunch of questions, but it's also nice to come home with a trophy. Don't ask me how I know.............

Looks great to me.

Doc Hudson from "The Cars" movie says "trophies are just empty cups".

I always go to these shows not expecting to get a trophy. So far I haven't been dissapointed!

Be like me, go to the shows, hang out with the back fence boys and girls, have a great time, never worry about trophy's, which do collect dust and smile all the way home, and always remember touring is where it's at...

Thanks all for the great replys. I must say sorry to Bob-A, I think Im going to change the color to a two tone. thinking it may give her a more classy look. Still looking for the right color combo that will do the trick.

I see your car is a very early 30 with the eye brow fenders.Perhaps they came with the 29 style bumpers?Good looking car.

Nice car, good attitude. I am a big fan of early cars, but for some reason I like a 30 coupe. I dont need one, got too many cars now, but I sure would like one.
