Default my wife and I showed together today

What a fun show. It was for a great cause. A president of a local car club was killed on his motorcycle almost a year ago. The proceeds of this show went to his six year old daughter, who was five when she lost her daddy. The club hosting is was very cool. Great people. Wonderful rides and it was a well organized event. Nancy, my wife took second in the MoPar Sport Car class, I took first and then I took Best MoPar in show. Our children had a ball and are eager to hit more shows.
I didn't take any digital pics at the show but you know I got some video so I'll edit it next week and post the vid at http://grinnerhester.com/Magnums
I did snap a couple of shots in the driveway when we got home:


This was a great day. Made me relearn this life is to savor. Every second is a literal miracle.
Treat it as such.

I went to my first show a week ago but I didn't show my Mag. I still have a couple of things to do before entering in shows. As far as the the exterior goes, I'm done, but I'm still in the process with the motor and interior. Shows are so cool. You get so many ideas from others and, in your case, you get to win some awesome trophies. Congrats!

I did a few car shows with my Magnum RT when I first got it last July, lots of people were asking what kind of car it was.

Even had a neighbor who is a car salesman, ask my who made the car.

I still get people asking me about the car, but not as many as when I first bought it.

man, roll that thing to St Lewy. I've gotten to know the magnum pretty good and would love to bust out a handful of freeby mods with ya in an afternoon.
I have a great support crew. My wife is budget concious, my boys have the wildest ideas under the sun and my little girl keeps me in line as far as illegal mods and reminds me that Autozone mods are cheezy. Great combo.

Fun huh???
I gave my PT Cruiser (mild custom) to my wife when I got the Mag and we've done one show together so far.
All of a sudden she's interested in this stuff

Mine too. It's awesome. She now wants Magnaflows, a dash kit, a rear-view camera and I just pimped her engine cover last night with some diamond plate and some flamage.
