I just wanted to say "Thank you" to all the judges at this years FOCOA. I got 2nd place in Semi mod. Here are some pics of my 88 Formula, 2 weeks before the show. & the pics of the car on Friday (the day before the show). We left at 3am on sat. got to the show at 10:30am. Drove striate there :P I have been up for more then 40+ hrs trying to get the car done, & with in an hour of getting there I got called down to have the car judged!!! I didn't even get a chance to wash it... Bugs every were, no FORMULA stickers, Nothing done.... So I figured it looks like crap. I just wasted all week of being up trying to get it just right & now it's being looked over by 5 or 6 guys. They looked it over & I drove it back to the parking space, Locked it up & went to our room & passed out! I slept through the dinner & thought I was to late for the after dinner fun. So we (my wife laura & I) went swimming & back to bed. Got up Sunday 8am & met Loyed (fastfieros) in the parking lot, he told me "You won 2nd place in Semi mod" Did you pick up your trophy? I looked at him like "Ya right!" He's like, really... you got one! KOOL..... It was going to be a great day..... So I just wanted to say Thank You to every one that judged the car. Enjoy the pics.... Thanks, Chris.
This is 2 weeks before the show.....

Your right!...If I do any more mods,I'll post it that way.... Thanks for the complement. I did it all, but shot the paint. FREHLEY1 helped with the eng, mod. After I got back I also installed the car alarm & power locks. I don't like the amp for the subs, so I'm going change the amps Sunday. Love working on my car.....
