Those are actually mine.

I took 300 pictures. Most are from Saturday morning. I was planning on taking them on Friday after judging was done, but just like last year, the rain got in the way of that plan.

I'll let you know when all 300 are uploaded. I am uploading them in chunks.

Absolutely fantastic photo journey! Give yourself a pat on the back. BTW, I noticed in most of the shots there's a plastic bag of something on the ground in front of the car or just under it. What the heck is that?

I got pictures of some of them. I think they are near the end of the pics I took, so it may be a couple of days until they are uploaded. So far I have uploaded 120/300.

Allan, inside the plastic bags were the parking spot number pads, with the logo of the Nationals. Everyone got to keep the one for their spot at the end.

Nice pic's! Cant wait for the next "chunk"!

Even though I was there and walked the cars a few times, I still look at photo's taken there and ask, "how did I miss that one?"
Thanks for sharing!

Those are the custom showfield markers that we made up for this year with our show logo and the car's registration number. These are souvenirs for all show cars so when we heard there was a chance of rain, we wrapped them all in plastic bags

That 53 belongs to Steve White, who's a member of our chapter, the Capitol City Rockets. The car was completely stripped to a bare shell, blasted, and painstakingly reassembled. There's a lot of work in this car.

I didn't take mine (#30, appropriate for a 66 W30, right) because I didn't know they were ours to keep

Beautiful car. I'm pretty sure my next car is going to be a 53 or 54 but I am leaning toward the 53 roof line. I will be a mild custom on bags with a 350 Chevy crate motor JK about the last part

That pic was just about the view we had from our room there. See, Joe? You didn't need to worry about anyone pushing your two-tone wagon into the lake.

But then again, you did bring it out front on Sat.........

I certainly noticed it. How much work was it to install fuel injection?
