aero3113 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Posted November 2, 2008 I entered my first show today and placed 3rd place in my category !!! The show was at bellmont race track (horse track) in long island NY. I did not know that they wanted to see first aid kits and fire extinguishers in every car so I guess I will get them for next time and maybe place higher. I was parked next to a black 1947 4dr plymouth that placed 1st. GOOD DAY FOR MOPAR !!! Quote

RobertKB Posted November 3, 2008 Report Posted November 3, 2008 Thanks for posting. Nice looking car. The '47 Plymouth looks very nice as well but the poor old pink Ford on the other side of you looks pathetic. Quote

Frank Elder Posted November 3, 2008 Report Posted November 3, 2008 ie; pink ferd, is there a reason to leave the rear side window higher than the front? Raked top? Quote
aero3113 Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Posted November 3, 2008 I went to flowerfield 2 weeks ago on saturday and I was not pleased with the turn out. I heard that sunday was the better day to go. Quote
steveplym Posted November 3, 2008 Report Posted November 3, 2008 Great pics. Congrats on the third place. Your car looks very nice. That '47 sitting next to it looks very nice too. Quote
aero3113 Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Posted November 3, 2008 Im supprised that no on noticed how small the bucket car is, you can tell by the guys foot in the lower left of the picture. Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Posted November 3, 2008 Congratulations on your win. Always fun to get recognition. That red '47 Chrysler coupe looks pretty fine, too. I know some groups do request/require that you have at least a fire extinguisher. And some the first aid kit, as well. I did buy an extinguisher for mine. Quote
aero3113 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Report Posted November 26, 2008 Finally received my trophy today Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 not so sure about the rake on the pink ferd..but that one piece windshield...just flat out takes away from the car...looks silly as all get out...don't forget to extend the pinkie finger when sipping your tea....!! Quote
