I noticed he narrowed the pic up a bit to make himself look more svelt.
But even taking that into account I thought he was heavier than that.

So................how many cameras were there??
I have a freind that won a trophy with his Pontiac convertible at a pretty large car show in NE. He had pre-entered it but because of rain didn't drive it down and just went down to spectate.
Wow Congrats Vance.. :wink: Hope these guys lighten up on you

Cool the best blue award.........

I kinda did that once as well.
Had a local car show and dance combo one weekend.
Just drove my 40 down to register and get tickets to the dance.
Went back home until that evening when I went back for the dance.
During the dance trophies were given out and my name was called for one of the peoples choices or something, a gumball machine.
Don't know who stuffed the ballot box, but do remember someone in the crowd wondering aloud about 'what car was that?' 'I never saw it'.
Neat award , Vance...Nice car ...The guy's sure seem to pick on you though...Are you related to Dave :?: :?: :?:

It looks alot better in person. he has taken great care of it, don't think he has ever set it the seats :shock:
