Default Congratulations FlintTony !

This was originally posted by Bowtie-Bri

I would like to say congrats to Tony. He took home a Top 25 award with his awesome 34 HOTrod.

These guys went to the Frankenmuth Car show in Frankenmuth, Michigan this weekend. For anyone who has never been to this show....it is huge ! And for Tony to take home this award, it is awesome.

Just wanted to say congratulations Tony! You deserve it.

Aww shucks. Thanks.
Here's a video of the junk that I built. The trophy is a German made beer Stein and an embroidered jacket.

Those are some cool cars Tony. I especially liked watching the clips from Lapeer, man does that bring back memories. I remember going there when they still had the porta johns. After a few years of those we were stunned when we went and they actually installed bathrooms.

Since Tony won't tell the whole story on getting his reward, I will tell it with Pictures.

1. I think the Judges were attracted to the Blue Chevelle but since the owner wasn't there they picked Tony's 34 (That is my theory).
2. He then had Kathy Clean the underside of it as soon as they put the sticker on the headlight, she was there past Midnight cleaning and more cleaning
3. This is Tony and Kathy coming around to the Judge's area
4. Tony waving to the crowd
5. Some nice old lady wanted his Autogragh and he told her is was going to cost her $5 so she had to dig in the bottom of her purse for the money. (Notice the Body Guards he hired after he Won)

That was good Ric. But I have to ask, did he get the 5 bucks ?

I suspected there was more to it than Tony was telling. Thanks for setting things straight Ric.
