Steve, Thanks for the photos. We had an intro convesation at V@V when you explained thr origin of "Blunt". Obviously there is nothing blunt about this absolutely pristene car. Your attention to detail is superb; the European bumperettes/overriders are terrific. I, and I'm sure others, would appreciate more photos (360 degrees) at some point, especiallly of the engine compartment and interior. This car will be one of the new high bars for us mere '02 mortals in the hinterlands. Thanks again, best wishes and congratulations.

What a beauty! That engine bay is a work of art.

I'm sure there will be lots of more trophies to come.

Blunt,
Congrats on your victory.
I think anybody who's seen even a pic of your car knows how rockin' it is.
Hope all your oil problems have sorted themselves out.
Keep crankin' and keep hope alive. ( at least for the rest of us rust bucket drivers, ha ha)

I just do not understand how you can get best of show

when you have a snorkel and your car is not numbers matching.

The standards are just not the same any more.

I'm hoping there's some Australian euphemism I'm not getting here.

Nice cup man, be sure to build in a trophy case in your trunk so you can show it off at a moment's notice.
