    I entered my first car show yesterday. It was a local show and I would guess there were between 100 and 150 cars/motorcycles there. I think I had the only replica car there but they had a little bit of everything else as well.

    I took my oldest daughter who loves cars and is headed off to college later this month. We had a lot of fun and she learned a lot from the other car owners. They were all great about sharing info about their cars and she was genuinely interested in all the details.

    We won the Best in Show - Venue’s Choice Award!

    They put us in the Special Interest category up against some pretty interesting vehicles. I’m curious, for those of you that enter these local shows, what category do these cars normally go in?

    The usual first question when folks stopped and asked about the car was ‘did you build it?” They were impressed when I told them “Yes” but if they kept asking questions and figured out that I painted it myself they were REALLY impressed. So much so, that by the end of the show my daughter was telling everyone that came around ‘He painted it himself!”

    Pretty cool to see your kid that proud of you! - Built not Bought!
