    On my third trip on the street since completion I drove to a local car show. I was humbled to receive a trophy.

    Looking at the first picture every other vehicle parked near you was something that recently came from a showroom with a window sticker. I am glad somebody appreciated a 50's car and the amount of work that it took to get it where it is today, be proud of what you accomplished! Mark

    Thanks. I've been grinning until my jaw aches. The row with vintage cars was already full, but you are right, there were only about a dozen cars that were built before1980. I think the closest compe***ors were a resto-mod '55 Chev 2 door post and a '50 Ford street rod that was still under construction.
