Thanks...
To be honest it's kinda weird to nominate your own rig though.
No offence to the owners here, but I run a MC forum with about 8000 members, and we nominate each other for Bike of the Month. This way you don't have to feel icky for tooting your own horn...?
Also I saw some hubub about the current winner being sponsored. I guess I fall into that category too? Well I am kinda reverse sponsored, I wanted the car, so I became a dealer for the parts, and put the corp name on it so I could say it was legitimate business expense.
I did build it with my own two hands, but if anyone has an issue with the company name/sponsored thing I will withdrawl. To me, a panel delivery in the old days was business vehicle anyhow. People didn't buy them new to customize so to speak, and I felt the logo kinda helps with the era feel.

First............CONGRATULATIONS
...............on the win (and as said by D, another Arizona win
).Regarding your statement about self nomination
.....you drive to, and enter your car, in car shows, possibly to win a trophy or SOMETHING. That, in a way, is self nomination. This is the same thing.....but you ONLY win the overwhelming recognition of the membership.
Hope to meet you one of these days.
Been away a while
