Well, took another first, 05+ verts, three in class. Had total of three CS's in a show of 250 cars (Fords Unlimited Show in St. Louis). I am now 2 firsts and 2 seconds out of 4 shows!
Caligirl was there with one and an old neighbor of my parents with the other.
Not sure if either of them placed. There was about 10 or 12 cars in the coupe class. Will post photo later when I take one.
heres a few shots of my car a week before the show:

i received 2nd in the 2000 up class at a small show here, but there were only three cars in the class

Last year (2007) I entered my first judged event. The All Ford show sponsored by the local MCA affiliated mustang club. I took 2nd in the 67-68 coupe/fastback stock class. Yesterday, I took 2nd again in the same class at the same show. Last month, I got a 2nd place in the top 20 for a local show. No first place yet, but I feel pretty good about the two 2nd place trophy's.

As a side note, one of the officials that judged my car at the All Ford show this year began by asking, " tell me what the difference is between a California Special and a standard mustang coupe". I gave the the condensed version over a span of one minute. He thanked me and continued to judge my car with no further comments. I felt like I was probably not fairly judged because the guy had no clue what kind of car he was looking at. Oh well:smile:.

How about this one? I went to my first show of the season last weekend. When I pulled in, they said they weren't expecting a California Special, so put me in with the '69-70 Mach 1's ,"to be fair". It was participant judged and my class was judged by the street rod guys. One even asked if I belonged to the Mustang club and when I said No, told me he couldn't vote for me. I overheard another tell his buddy he'd like to vote for my car but was supposed to vote for somebody elses. The last time I went to this show about 3 years ago, I heard the same kind of comments, so I think it was all rigged. I can't tell you who did win, because I got stung on my little toe by a wasp and had to leave early because my foot swelled to the size of a grapefruit. I've decided if I'm going to be in the sun for 6 hours, I'd rather be on the river.

Cruise Nights

Received awards at all 3 cruise nights attended so far.

For me though, I prefer the conversations at the gas pump and other stops along the way and nods and waves of approvals while cruising over the trophies ... I could do without the price of the gas though :grin:

 

[Midnight Special]

Congratulations on the awards Rich! AMEN on the rest!!

Got a 1st place in the 67 -72 "modified class" at the "Car Show and Shine for Kids" sponsored by ANPAC Insurance company in Springfield last weekend. I'm learning that my car loses points in the stock class. So I switched to modified and won. I guess I have too many personal touches to win stock class. Live and learn.

Won a trophey on Sat. at a local show, and on Sunday won first place in new cars catagory while hubby took Best in class with our other mustang. (02 GT)
We did good this weekend.

 

[GTCS07]

I took a second last Sat. I think it would have been 1st but it was a class for factory built specialty Mustangs and the sheet only listed Bullits and Mach 1s so some people didn't realize that they could vote for mine.

Two weekends ago, we hosted a small car show here in our hometown. The show was to raise money for returning troops from Iraq to a nearby army base. Our goal for the entire event was $2,300. Instead, the event raised $7,000 and we raised $107 for the car show. Each person who wanted to vote for their "Peoples Choice" was charged $1 to vote.

Our GT/CS won the "Peoples Choice" trophy. Last weekend, we entered a local show in our former home town. We competed in the 1960-1969 class. They gave out top two for each class which was called "Outstanding in Class', which we won.

I think we are done showing for the year. I need to focus more time on getting body work done on the Cobra.

The newest trophies are the taller red one in the center (Peoples Choice) and the small purple color one on right (Outstanding in Class).
