Day at the car show
« on: May 06, 2013, 09:45:51 PM »
OK, I can see he's not going to brag about this, so the task falls to me.� Ryan took his Jeep to his first-ever car show the other day and came home with this:�



Seems as though he was beat out by a pristine '67 Landcruiser.� A good time was had by all, it was reported to me.� Congrats!

Then come to Maine...."4WD Trucks" isn't exactly an overcrowded class....

I had a blast but the award was hardly boast-worthy. It will be hanging in the garage though if anyone wants to see it� :)

Come on Ryan.... "not to many 4wd's in Northern Maine" Really???
Your singing to the choir here but when the public likes your work enough to recognize it that's big.
 Besides when a member's 3A is recognized with an award, don't we all get to feel like a proud uncle?

Way to go Ryan! Just make sure you leave enough room on the garage wall for more.  8-)
