I was thinking the same thing when i saw it!
Buy low sell high, just like stocks. Its a great time right now for someone looking to buy a nice, restored collector car.
STORMEASTON wrote:I’m for it! Ya just never know when a helpful hint may come up.What gave me the idea was I spent a portion of the day today detailing my truck. The last time I did any wax was last winter, and with that I hit a hard coat of polish beforehand. I washed it a few times this summer, and it still beads up nice. Along with that, i drive this thing everyday and it rarely sits outside overnight. I was expecting to have to break out the clay bar, but I was really surprised how smooth the hood and roof still felt. I decided im putting off the wax treatment awhile longer yet as the water still really beads up nice. I used a polish called nanocare from Malco and Regulars Gold Class wax the last I did it.
Anybody want to guesshow many miles i have on this 7 year old beauty? It is by far the best truck I’ve ever owned!

You locked up the post concerning my request for info on the up coming Oxford show.All i did was ask for info and when it wasn`t supplied as stated i put a little comment about it and the site police (moparkid25)jumped dead in my shit. Have you heard the term one bad apple spoils the bunch? He is the reason many previous posters to this site no longer are part of this forum.I will no longer contribute to this site, and will find car show info else where. He made false accusations about me and has attacked my integrety on more than one occasion claiming i have problems with shows i don`t win at and refuse to attend those shows.That is completely false and the only show i have ever had an issue with is pardeville and once those issues are resolved i`ll go back again. I`ve won at 16 of 20 shows entered this year and have not had an issue with any of them.Even the 4 shows i did not win at i thought were good shows and it just wasn`t my day.Ask the car owners who see me at most shows and they will tell you i`m a fair and honest competiter who likes nothing more but to show off my truck and spend time with these friends first and the awards come second.All who think other wise can kiss my ass.You have a PM tough guy.

Hopkinton is definitely on Sunday, October 7th… It was a great show last year,, if good weather, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Nice to have you guys come into Iowa…. thanks.I got to be honest, some of the best shows (and the best show) I’ve attended this year were on the other side of the river
Perhaps for Hopkington we can get a convoy of ddhemi, luxuryliners, kcarguy, and myself to make the trip? Sounds like most of us are heading to Oxford the day before… Maybe swing home after, pack a bag, and spend the night down there Saturday???
Bigbluetruck wrote:moparkid25 Maybe you should be called on the way you disrespect most of the people who post on here who`s opinions don`t agree with your`s.Im going to end this pissing match with you right now.
Unlike you, I can handle constructive critiscm and when people don’t agree with me. Its not easy being card carrying NRA member, who doesn’t vote democrat, a resident of progressive dane county, and a Minnesota Vikings fan in the Packers homeland. I deal with people who I don’t agree with, and people who don’t agree with me everyday. Its a little thing called life, you just deal with it. Now, when the radicals go off on there “you’re either with me or against me” tirades, then yes i may have something to say.
Now, just because you think a show is a shithouse and everyone else says different, that doesn’t mean the world is out to get you. There’s a few shows others enjoy that I won’t go to, I don’t pitch about those shows anymore – I just don’t go. Case in point Albany, Edgerton, and now the Dells. I don’t discourage anyone else from going, they can spend there money any way they want, as i do mine. Maybe you just come off as an a-hole? If so then perhaps my judgement is clouded. But from what i’ve read and seen, it don’t matter what show it is, if you ain’t winning you ain’t going back. That’s fine too, because many competitive people do the same. Again, its your choice on which shows you want to attend.
I’ve had my share of go-arounds with a few on here, from the admins to other members to my oh-so-high flower picking neighbor who thinks im a daddys boy. If you really got something to say, come find me. There isn’t a whole hell of a lot of slender Norwegians named Zac driving GN’s…..
Luxuryliners wrote:I thought that Hopkington show was the next weekend October 7th, or do they have 2 shows? Might check that one out as well if I get a chance.I just went and looked, and you are correct it is next weekend. My bad…. Weather permitting I think i would like to check this show out.

So you ask for some info, Nick says he will post it, he doesn’t post it and you try to get shitty with him? C’mon man, relax. Nick, Andrew, &Ryan all do an awesome job of keeping this site up to date. Its only Tuesday, you’ve got plenty of time to get the info, get your truck clean, and plan your path long before the show takes place.
How did i get shitty with him? If any one is getting shitty it`s you.I want to get as much info as i can as early as i can, there are 2 other shows that day that are much closer and i`m trying to decide on which one to attend. If i got SHITTY with you Nick then i apolagize but it looks to like moparkid is up to his usual self and trying to start trouble.
So he didn’t post the info, and you make this comment:
Quote:Tonight is over and no info posted.That’s a BS move when you’re asking for someone’s help. If no one else will call you on it, I will. If it makes me a trouble maker because I called you on it, so be it.

That green chevelle used be around mtg horeb when i was a kid. except it had a tunnel ram with dual quads out the hood, that muster been removed.
I’ve been to the autorama show a couple times and have not been impressed. the cruise night is fun though and that happens the night before.
Now that I got home where I could open up the judging sheet, I can say without seeing your car, and it being an 09 model, that is a low score (if your Blue Charger is the car I believe it to be). Its hard to get experienced judges that know what they are looking at, and will donate the time year after year.
As Jon said, if you’re going simply for the award, you’re going for the wrong reason. There is nothing wrong with being competitive, but if your day revolves around winning that $10 trophy I think your time cant be better spent elsewhere. Its about meeting people who share the same interest as you, enjoying other people’s passions, and enjoying yourself.
There’s shows others rave about that I won’t attend because I think they suck (Albany), but I don’t beat a dead horse or discourage people from going.
