Salina - Got this in the mail today...

I got this in the mail today for my 51 GMC. Man, was I surprised! We left Sunday right before the awards - I never expected to win anything.

Does anybody know what the judging criteria is?

 

Dang that's cool Mike! Good job---my pal G***erlouie won an award too.

 

heck yeah, what a surprise im sure.. keep on grinning.. cool stuff.

Wow... win an award.... and post it for sale in the hamb cl***ifieds all in the same day!!

You're a genius, that is a tricky sales move I've never heard of!!!

He put his award up for sale? WTF???

 

Hahahahahaahaha..... yea check the Misc. section for a Salina plaque!!!!!

 

I'm a cash buyer for that---only way I will ever get one!

 

Yep probably!!!

 

Howzabout a better pic then your avater?

 

Cook beans, congrats. The best awards are the ones you aren't expecting.

 

Congratulations!

 

Really....?

 

As a long time judge for the KKOA at Gettysburg, and the Leadsled, when I was able to attend, I know the criteria.
In short, it is the car you'd most want to have sitting in your driveway.
They emphasize that it is NOT an ISCA type car show, and we don't judge the cars for points. We base it on how nice it is, how it fits in our tastes, and it's coolness factor. whether we'd drive it or not. It does not have to be perfect, fresh, or high dollar. I believe the only guidelines might be that they choose a late model for an award, and perhaps a "ratrod" type car for one, as well.
If they give out a "best" award, like best paint or best engine, then they DO tend to use a regular judging type criteria for the award.
Congrats!

 

Congrats Mike!

 

Very cool, congrats!

 

That is a cool truck.

 

Thanks chopolds, that's what I was looking for.

Thanks guys.

 

Yeah man I dig that truck, congrats!

 

I remember seeing that truck out there. Congrats!

 

Good on ya! I missed your truck up there, unfortunately!

 

My buddy GrouchySS and I both got the same Top 25 awards in the mail today. Congrats to all who got an award at KKOA Salina, there were some KILLER rides there! As usual, all the cars there were VERY deserving of an award. I would have awarded the wheel stander of Povertyflats the WILDEST ride in the park.

 

I'm glad that 3 of my buddies won awards. I usually never like many of the winners at this show. But really the main thing is that we have fun. And we DID.

 

A jimmy and an inliner (shouldn't they all be that way) , nice truck! Thanks for the "big" picture!

 

i'd like that truck in my driveway.... congrats

 

show me a picture of it aired up.

 

Here ya go...
