I gave up basically on Judged shows more then 5 years ago (Mostly Corvette) because I lacked the will or the desire to be enslaved by a box of Q-tips and a bottle of detailer ... BUT I enter one on my cars in ALL the FUN shows that I can find... Those shows that only allow drivers to vote for a car or cars of their choice... And I refer to them as displays.. And there is no better way to spend an afternoon then dragging a few cold drinks and a chair (rocker in my case) and parking my behind down in the middle of a bunch of neat cars...I sit only after taking regularly scheduled tours around the show field... I do however enjoy Cruise Ins better then any other form of Displays... I get off looking at neat cars... everything from dead stock restorations of ALL MAKES to completely custom vehicles... I am even now getting to enjoy looking at some of the Rice Rockets the young kids are driving (I am in my 60's) ...the only thing that still turns me off however is the Stereos in most of them... lol Bob Griffiths 68 Clonned SS 396 64 72 Corvette Ragtops 76 79 95 Corvette Coupes
RE: [Chevelle-list] First Show
Let me know the next time you'll be in Anchorage. We'll have to get together, and head down to the raceway or something. If it's in the summer, that is. Elsewise, we can drink a few beers, and BS about our cars!

By the looks of your address you are in ALASKA? I'm a C-130 Loadmaster and we fly up there from time to time. I also own a 1970 Chevelle Malibu Convertible. I hear you are having some great weather up there. Enjoy!

I entered my first show this past weekend. There weren't any prizes or places given out, so I guess it was more of a display. I figured I'd be kinda out of place, but after arriving and getting my baby set up, I felt right at home next to some of the other classics. It was great to have other enthusiasts and several hundred people ogle over my Chevelle. What a great feeling. I guess this is what it's all about! By the way, for those that may be wondering, I managed to get that back seat out, and install the seatbelts so the whole family could attend! Good times! SARGE

It's nicer to relax and ogle at all the other cars there instead of people picking your car apart. Tom
