Re: Never Any Meets/Representation at Car Shows in Southern California?
Good to hear; do you get stink-eye or negative comments about not being a "pre-73" and a modern vehicle at such a show?
I've got plenty of classic cars that are pre-73, but the few times I took my 1990 Jaguar XJS with an LS-4 V8 conversion to a few of these, it seemed to be the bane of the show - (mind you, there was a 1972 240Z LS1 conversion there too getting nothing but accolades and praise.) That usually subsided once people realized what was under the hood but it took a lot of "but wait, there's more" moments.
Not that I care what anyone else thinks, just curious as to how people are receptive of our cars. Considering my SRT-6 is more rare in production numbers (and often faster) than most any pre-73 Chevelle, Camaro, Mustang, or other Mopars, I find it funny anyone would find fault with its presence especially when I see modern Camaros, Mustangs, Challengers, and Chargers at these shows.
