I have been to shows where my older Camaro did not win an award but have DRIVEN it to California and won! Figure that one out!
I am not in it for awards, I want to see everyones cars and hear their story about why they did what they did, that is the best part of a show!

I see your point, But I would know were to get the parts and fix it if needed. that dose not qulifiy me as the restorer. There are not comparable I agree, but if it is a ALL car show as advertised then one would need to keep a open mind about what they are looking at. I would never enter mine in a classic show. I do not care about the trophy just people saying crap to you when there is no need is ignorant. But I would not buy one of your restored cars and lie and say I did the work either thats my point. Alot of them lie and say they restored it. By the way that is why I did not go that route again. I wanted to have fun and drive it this time. not spend my time in the garage (last car olds 70 442 got wrecked) I also want my 8yr old son to work on it with me and maybe pass it one to him as a classic by then
, There is a place for all these cars. I got many people who restored theres and said If I was to do it again I would by a new one so I could just drive it. Including my brother, who talked me into not buying the 69. I respect the classics and the modern just the same.
