So I was trolling around looking for car shows I can take my car to, figuring there were none on Sunday, when I came across one that was near my house. I was just going to cut my grass and do my laundry so I figure why not.
I cut the grass, then got cleaned up & went to the car show. It was a blast, although I didn't win anything. I got plenty of compliments from people looking at the car, but nothing from the one doing the judging. Realistically the car is a 20 footer. In pictures she looks really good, but up close you can see the dents, dings, and scratches, as well as rust. The interior is clean but not the cleanest around.
Still I had a good time & the one thing that stood out is one guy that told me the color is great on the car & likes it better than the original blue. The car was painted what I think is a Grabber Blue. I am trying to locate a touch up so I can test that theory on the scratches. That same guy told me "Don't take this the wrong way, but your engine is the nicest looking part of the whole car."
I laughed and told him no offense taken, as I had worked very hard on detailing that engine before dropping it in the car. It was a lot of fun, the car was not happy afterwards. She was not pleased to have not won anything, and I know this because her transmission did not want to engage in to first gear very well afterwards. I hope it's not a sign of issues to come later lol.
I was having issues with Tapatalk so I cannot load pictures, so will try loading them some other way later on.
