I would pop it off and see if Bill signed his name in silver Sharpe underneath while you weren't looking.

Congrats Jim.
Maybe I should record this, for obvious reasons...

Well done Jim!
Did you tell Dennis that most guys in rusty Pennsylvania get cars from Arizona, but OH NO, a guy from dry Arizona bought a car from rusty Pennsylvania. That’ll convince him that you were up for a challenge. Never know it by the finished product.

I will work on the video I took of Jim being interviewed tomorrow, you can't hear much of what they are saying, but you can see them together and you can also see how some people have no self awareness. My favorite story was that Dennis looked at my car, then looked at me and asked if it was mine. I said yes, and he said "could you please close your hood, it's gonna be in the way of our shots of this beautiful orange 68 Coronet 500" That may not be the exact quote, but something like that. I thought it was funny as hell! Bill told Jim that his car just went up in price by $49,999 because it is a TV car now! ;-)
Nice to finally meet you, Bart!
I like the sheets of information you had available 'crediting the people' who worked on your car. Very thoughtful to give credit where credit is due, and helpful to the hobby. I wish other people in the hobby were as thoughtful and considerate................

Some people just want to take all the credit.....

Yep I told him that story but I think that was during the "pre-interview test".... He actually did the interview with me without me really realizing it to apparently see if I was someone "presentable". After that he asked if I wanted to do a filming for the show.
One time at Spring Fling in Van Nuys, Rob Wolfe (MCG Editor) asked me “is this your Runner? It was parked next to me and a fresh #1 restoration. Blue. Beautiful car and just taken off the trailer. I said no, this is my Coronet. He said “oh, and walked away.

Yeah, he has to do his thing for his show. I will be the first to say that your car deserved to be singled out, no doubt it is a beautiful car! Congratulations on your and Kaelynn's 2nd place finishes, they were well deserved!!!

Maybe we should take a look at the "First Place" cars?

Honestly I did not really spend much time at all looking at the other cars and I took zero photos other than the one of the three of us after the place cleared out. In my class it was a '68ish Camaro that I don't remember seeing, I don't remember what it was in Kaelyns because she was too excited and wanted to post some snap chat photos of both of the awards together to I missed what it was.
