The Colonel took his second trophy!!

[THE COLONEL]

There were some fine looking Mopars at "Mopars in the Park" in Butler, PA on Sunday, and I am a little shocked that I took a trophy.  They had just over 150 cars there, and the top 40 ( in no particular order) got trophys.  It came down to the last three when they called my name.  I know most of you have won stuff with your cars, but I do more car cruises that don't have trophies, then car shows, but it is still a cool feeling to win one.  Even though it is a $4 (if that) trophy, it still makes you feel proud of all the hard work put into the cars, and that people appreciate them.  My dad took one too with his 64 Plymouth Sport Fury.  If it would ever stop rainging here, I might be able to get some pics up.

Congratulations!

I love your paint scheme. A long time ago, I had exactly that scheme in my head for my car, with something in the doors like the hood. In the end, after 30 years, I've decided to go back with the original Silver and add the black tail stripe. Call me old lol.

 I've been meaning to tell you that your car looks great. I really like the 318, kinda' back to basics old school look of the Colonel. You did an awsome job with its restification and it shows!!   Obviously others can agree as your trophy cabinet is getting crowded!! Have I ever mentioned that although we've never met, we should have? I'm in NE Ohio, your in NW PA, Correct? We know ALOT of the same people!! Take care man, feel good about your job well done! You've got a car you can enjoy... and wins shows!! (and prolly gets 18mpg to and from the shows ta boot!!) Thats all too cool!!

Yup! I have a pretty good Idea where that is, I'm south of you about 26 miles east of Washington, Pa...

My Dad lives over in New Brighton, and I grew up (well to about the age of 12) in the Freedom and Beaver Falls areas, so I'm somewhat familar with that area, although it has changed alot in the last 30+ years!
