You have to shrink it to under 100K.

If you can't do it, send it to me and I'll shrink it and send it back to you.
Send me a PM on this if you want.

Dave you hit the nail on the head,Good Guys Meets are JUDGE Picks! It is what ever the Judge likes and that is it.Just because there is a High dollar Real Yenko,Mustang ,OLDS,or whatever it doesen't matter if it is a Replica or Real Numbers matching etc.It is strictly what the Judge likes.I went a couple of years ago with 20 other friends and my car was picked as best restored muscle car and one other friends car was picked.I asked the Judge why my car was picked over some of the others and he specifically told me he loved 67 chevelles and the color of my car caught his eye ,and that he liked the detail of my chevelle,and the fact that it was a driven car not trailered.I grant you there were 3 other 67 Chevelles that were nicer than my car but they did not get picked.Honestly if I was a Judge I would have picked a white 67 Chevelle over my car.It was immaculate in every way.Good Guy's is strictly up to a Judge making a pick!No points,doesent matter if it is a real super car or a replica or a old rat rod.That is why a lot of people attend Good Guy's because no matter what you go in you actually have a chance to be picked!I might add that I have entered Super Chevy 3 times and never won anything at all! But then again the first year my car was completed it won at Houston Autorama!Yera 2 at Houston autorama I came in second and year 3 I came in third!I love going to shows to have fun and meet a lot of people an look at cars.If I win something that is great if I don't then so be it I still had fun and meet some nice people and looked at a lot of nice cars.

I had a situation at a car show when they had too many cars in my catagory and not enough in the catagory beneath mine, so in there wisdom they put my car into the lower catagory and then nailed me for every little problem to make the judging more fair. Not that im bragging, but my car has never takin anything less then first in any car show i've ever entered it in. I was clearly the winner in either catagory, even the compitition were telling me they're fighting for 2nd. Well i ended up in 2nd, i was shocked and then they give me an award for best display and said "why are you complaining, we have to give first to other people sometime or nobody will compete", besides we gave you a best display trophy". Well if they want to beat me BUILD A BETTER CAR!!...................That was the last car show i ever entered, other then charity events.

HI BOBBY, THANKS FOR THE INSIGHT..... NOT EVERYONE CAN BE A WINNER AT EVERY SHOW. I WAS PLEASED TO WIN THE AWARD. AS YOU SAY, IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO ANOTHER CAR GUYS OPINION. I WISH I WAS ABLE TO POST BETTER PICTURES ON THE SIGHT, BUT THE 100000 BYTE LIMIT IS TOUGH TO GET AROUND. HECK, ANOTHER MEMBER WAS NICE ENOUGH TO OFFER TO EDIT THE PICS FOR ME, BUT THEY ARE TO BIG TO EMAIL?!? ANYWAY, I GUESS WHEN I GUY BUILDS A CLONE, HE HAS TO EXPECT THAT HE WILL CATCH SOME FLACK, AND I'M OK WITH THAT....ANYONE WHO WOULD SEE MY CAR IN PERSON WOULD SURELY AGREE THAT IT WAS DONE RIGHT WITH NO SHORT CUTS. BOTTOM DOLLAR, BUILD WANT YA WANT AND HAVE FUN WITH IT!!

I know what type of car it takes to win at Good Guys and to be able to take the Muscle Car of the Year Award you have one FINE CAR.I myself own a Replica Nickey Chevelle and it is a nice old hoopty,at least it is what I like and enjoy.I am sure you enjoy your car also.Heck everyone can't afford a real SuperCar.If I did I would loose weight fast because I couldn't afford to eat anymore LOL.Dont let anyone get you down because you own a Replica.For a lot of people not to like Replicas there sure a lot of them out there.And Remember that you already have the award and it can't be taken away.Good Luck at future shows and happy motoring.
