Mr. Nut

It was an excellent day with friends .... But Mr. Nut .... next time you'll need your own umbrella ... Dan, thanks for all the great information on your build.
With all the road rash on my car, 2nd place is not bad ...
Mike

Mikey, if it's any consolation, I posted on facebook that I thought your car should have won. When they announced your name for 2nd, I was already walking back to my car figuring there was no way I'd even get an honorable mention. Well, needless to say, it surprised the hell out of me too when I heard my name called. I think I won because of the decals!

I also think that with my newly acquired inflated ego, I will go out and purchase my very own super tricked out umbrella/chair combo just to make you jealous! Ha. Thanks for sharing your umbrella with me today though. Hell, did you see the mounting bracket Dan Ziol made for his umbrella to mount to his chair? I wouldn't expect anything less out of Dan! I"ll see you for next years show and seriously, if you're ever up in the Beverly Hills area during the week, do let me know.

Thumbs up

Nice going Mike! I am sure it was your captivating smile and boyish good looks that got you second prize. But, then again, your smile and looks may be why you didn't get first?

It is the cars and the owners that make the show. Congratulations to you and Jon on both accounts.
