    One vote for the "can you see the maverick under all the clutter in the garage" category.

    Would like to see this in January, sounds like a great idea.

    A novel idea! Or new class Best Primer.......I like it!! Seriously,, I love to see cars during the in progress mode,,laying primer well is not easy and you usually dont see people color sanding it to make it better appearing.

    jpollard,,,, I am proud of ya... you stuck your neck out on an idea you believed in and it looks like it will happen for all of us to enjoy. I got to admit when I first read the post I thought 'poor guy is bored with winter' Now it appears that most already are......all can hate me, winter is my favorite season,,,,I got good heat in my garage:bananaman

    This is sounding better all the time! :)

    Ok, who has experience with running a car show? We need to come up with a schedule, categories, deadlines, beer wagon, trophies, etc.... Who is going to design the electronic dash plaque??

    Where do we send the pictures or do we post them ourselves? Are we going to be limited by the usual 80k or what ever it is, photo size?

    If we need server space, I have it.

    I have about 3 weeks off starting this Friday so I will have time to help with this if it is needed.

    Any other suggestions??

    Garage!?!?

    What in the world? Is that legal?:p I mean, I though that working in the mud, cold, rain, and heat was supposed to be fun. ;) I wish I did have a nice, climate controlled garage......man, I would LIVE in that thing. Country

    We heat our garage with an old coal stove. No matter how cold it is outside, it stays around 75 degrees inside. Guess were we head off to when the power goes out?:D
