I wouldn’t expect Best of Show but the real Car Guys will enjoy it. Have fun and enjoy your day.

A few shots before the show begins/opening the hood. I'm enjoying this already!

Many years ago my brother had a '69 Z28. It was half black primer and half forest green with white stripes. It had a 327 in it when he got it. We built a LS6 and put it in. We had more fun in that car than any other car we have ever had. We didn't worry about scratching it or getting it dirty. It was fast and fun. Pretty cars are nice, but not as much fun.

The show was fun, most people made comments about its potential but a few totally enjoyed the car. 2 guys really knew what it was. My favorite car from the show was a well optioned unrestored 69z. It had the zl2 hood added years ago but other than that it was very original. The car had the original blue light radio too. Anyway as I'm looking at the car I ask a woman if she can open the hood, she says "my husband is over there looking at that car" I look across the lot and he's leaned over getting a close look at my car! We hit it off and that made the show more enjoyable. His name is Orrin Holt and he has owned some cool cars.
The other gentleman who "got it" was Dennis Murmin, he showed me images of the find of a lifetime a few years back involving a few BOSS mustangs, he sold off a few and says one of the cars is on the MCACN facebook page. He highly recommended my car be shown at MCACN which felt like a huge compliment.

I enjoy driving the car and it still needs some work like a rear end rebuild and hood adjustment but I'm able to drive it with confidence. I hope soon to get some better videos while driving and I've considered investing in a gopro.

Oh I didn't win anything as expected

Great shot of the car Jose! The satisfaction you're getting showing the car to other people and driving it are better than any trophy bud!
