I had the best Model A in the entire show recently...however, it was the ONLY Model A in the show!
Its worse when there is only two model A's in the show and the one that needs a paint job, has the wrong wheels, no windshield wiper motor or inside mirror and the drip rails are installed with phillips screws, wins first place. In many cases club politics influences the judgeing. I do mine like I want them and to hell with the parking lot car shows.

Not wanting to hijack another's thread, I thought I would ask here. Following up on the posts above, what are your pet peeves and/or complaints about car shows or cruise nights?

Mine is having my stock Tudor being grouped / judged against chopped and rodded 'modern' versions that bear no similarity except for a general shape.
