Anybody know if they announced the riddler winner yet...


The "great 8" this year had a pretty diverse selection

Kindig with an all aluminum corvettish coupe thang ! Other then that and JF’s cougar/mustang thang the show is about a laughing stock of what it used to be. Watched a couple walk through videos and the bad ideas put to wheels is staggering. LA roadster show much better quality and quantity in my spoiled , picky ass opinion

I had a feeling Dave was going to pull it.


That cougar was a Canadian built car wasn't it?

Yes. He brings a bit of an odd ball every couple years. I like most of his stuff though he tends to throw a bit too much at some. Kinda like chicks at Barrett Jackson some can where one nice piece of jewelry while others fill every finger !

Crazy how Kindig pulls that 5 year build off without someone catching a glimpse. I was there pre sema and didnt see shit !!

When I worked at CSR there was an off limits room and Boyd had the same but larger. No one went in there. This was way before digital cameras and cell phones. The way Chuck or Boyd would have lost their shit if they caught someone leaking pics in todays world,,,,

Didn't know JF building that Cougar. I'm guessing you've seen the yellow Riviera he built a while ago?
I dig [ pun intended ] Kindig's builds.

Man when I was a kid I always wanted to go to autorama. Grew up close to Detroit, but we were too poor to go. Finally went when I was 16 and loved it.

The wheels on both cars ruin them for me.
