I have finished my through review of the annual Car d’Alene Car Show and Cruise in Coeur d’Alene. I’m not a judge or anything, but thought the participants would appreciate my unsolicited opinions.
First place, “Cars I’d do terrible things to own” category:
Yeah, it’s a Superformance clone, but just look at it!
First place, “Most Creative Torq-Thrust Wheels”
The bronze looked great on this green Nova.
Tied for 112th place, Best Muscle Car
There were rows upon rows of Mustangs/Camaros/Chargers and at least two Javelins, so it was difficult to stand out from the crowd.
Honorable Mention, Best Knock-Off
These are knock-offs; the car, a Daytona Coupe, was not. suppose dly an authentic Shelby Daytona just sitting on the street so any peasant can put their Twinkie-smeared hands all over it...
Best Flames
The picture really doesn’t do it justice, the clear coat was at least an inch thick.
Best Pin-up Girl
My wife was with me, no way I was going to take pictures of the pinup girls. In fact, I didn’t even notice they were there.
Double Award for Best Intake and Best Exhaust Manifold
A sweet Offy intake with these custom headers were fantastic.
Slantiest 6
And Finally, the award you all have been waiting for....
Award For Best Lego-Themed Star Destroyer
My cat thanks you for your patronage and looks forward to giving out more unsolicited awards next year!

Clone = $$$
“Official recreations” = $$$$
Original Cobras = all the $$$$$

I’ve seen that Daytona! I thought it looked too “used” to be a replica. You just don’t expect to see one driving down the road like it was a Camry.

TThe way you do it is to take a photo of something else but have the pin up in the background.
