MAFOA Sem-Quarantine Car Show
« on: February 25, 2021, 01:45:32 pm »
I just saw this on PFF and was hoping some Club members would enter. Myself and I think one other member entered last year. I ask this selfishly because I have not been able to travel to attend a meeting and would love to see some detailed pictures of members’ cars!

I entered, last year--much later in the year, when it wasn't freezing outside.  I have found that you can show a car too much.  The cars that were very nice, are still judged as nice, even though the cars aren't as nice now.  For the rest of us, as we improve our cars, our cars will still be judged based on how our cars used to look.

Probably. Have to knock off some dust and spiders, and get some current pictures.
Everything here is still in complete disarray. And if it doesn't rain soon, all our carefully cultivated mud is going to dehydrate.

TopNotch should enter his parts Fiero in the project category.  Just don't mention that the car is a parts car, and be stripped.  Give the car a cleaning, and truthfully state that it is a project car.

Since it doesn't specifically state, I wonder how many people entered non-Fieros.

I didn't enter. Too much of a swamp around the garage.

Judging by the pics, you could have entered with pictures from years past.

Unfortunately no. Life “happened” recently and I have had to put the fiero in a temporary holding pattern. Hope to get back to it soon.

You might want to move this thread to the Events board.

There are winners and losers.  In this show, there were winners for each class.  Then there was the prestigious award for last place.  Unlike all the people who won first place, there was only one last place, making this the most difficult award of all.
