Default Re: Car show fun last night

I was worried that if I classed it as Domestic the people who knew better would give me grief. It turned out that about half the people there knew its origins and the other half believed it to be all american made. I was even asked about the Mercedes wheels and if I used wheel adapters to get them to bolt on. I tried to explain to that person that you can't put Chrysler wheels on a Crossfire because the bold pattern is Mercedes. The guy looked at me like I was full of %&*. I really had a fun time showing it. It had been a long time since I had shown a car. the last being my Cobra in the gallery. I will be showing again this weekend at show that our church is putting on. I think in the future I will try for classes that are generic to origin. BTW, I traded a Mercedes built in Alabama for a Chrysler built in Germany!
