Way to go...   Congrats...! Makes it all worthwhile doesn't it...

[/QUOTE]

It certainly does ! Everytime something breaks, I wonder if I made the right decision buying my car.  But, that changes quickly, when I'm going down the highway, tops off, wind blowing through my scalp, strangers asking questions and admiring your baby does make a difference. Then to top it off, you get an award !  Bottom line I  money pit !

Congrats on the win. Its good to know all that hard work does pay off.

 I recently put my car in its first show since I put it all back together. I got a first place in my C3 category and one for best paint. Made my wife squeal, I think she got a bigger kick out of it than I did.

Thanks, I was planning to put it in a child seat strapped in next to me. But with my luck, I may have to hit the brakes causing it to go into the windshield. I don't need another expense. I'll just keep on the kitchen table until my wife gets pissed off.

I finally can relate. It is a really great feeling knowing that all that extra polishing and cleaning and updating is appreciated by others. And yet you know that there are still many more things you can do to improve her.
That's the great part of owning an older veichle with lots of potential and opportunities to make her even better.

CONGRATULATIONS WARBIRD!!!
