    About 150 or so cars ... pretty decent Ford turnout but still 70% or so GM ... with some MOPAR mixed in ...

    The Grabber got a top 25 award ... Here are some of the only pics I have of the two cars together. We registered the 74 under my son Colton's name figuring he might get best Under Construction but they never gave out an award for that catagory ...

    Check him out in the pics sporting his 2005 MCCI Round-Up T-Shirt.

    If that had been my Mom, she would have had a heart attack!:eek: It still is a cool door prize, though. All I ever get is car wash soap and sponges. At any rate, congrats on your win.(y) You both look like you had a great time, and that's whats really important.:)
