Saurday was as some of you know the "Crusin' the Drag" car show.
One of Montana's largest shows, which brought in 500 cars this year.
This is the first car show I have ever entered and felt I had no chance since the only class I could compete in was Contemporary Classic which is intended for cars from 1980 to current. Big class actually with all the Vettes, Mustangs, Camaros and sad to say but a whole bowl of "Rice".
I Won Best Contemporary Classic!
I was next to a 1941 Chrysler and I felt it was really neat to see what
64 years of technological advancement looks like in an automobile brand.
It was a fantastic pride buider having literally thousands of people looking at, taking pictures of and asking questions about the SRT.
Surprisingly the age of the interested varied from children, teenagers and middle aged while seemingly recapturing the youthfull memories of those who had given up covering the occational gray hair decades ago.
I LOVE & WILL NEVER SELL THIS CAR!!!!!

I hope I did the Crossfire world well with this win.

 

Congratulations Mike. Just goes to show ya how a great looking car (with a stripe) can dazzle a crowd.

 

Very Nice! Congratulations!

 

Congratulations! Sound like you had a great time!
How come you have the 3 point seat belt (red) in the picture but also the OEM seatbelt?
Seatbelts are not to be tampered with but why have no members chenged the color of the seatbelt?

 

Well done, thats some engine bay, Ive got a bit of work on mine to get it anywhere near that

 

Firstly ???
The red belts are a 5 point set-up and the OEMs have been removed for all practical purposes.
I left the Shoulder harness installed so it can be connected under the seat to elimnate any anoying signal and as with every part I have removed, boxed and catagorized if the need be I can return this car to stock in "No Time".
I will not say that people should not mess with seat belts but I will say they need to educate themselves in their operation and use ONLY grade 8 bolts.

Mike

 

Great Win, Congrat.'s. Your car is as fast as it looks!

 

Nice, congrats..

 

Love the engine bay and go fast stripe. Very well done, cool win!

 

What is used as anchor points?

 

Oh I see. Was just curious as it looked you had two seatbelts in there.
The red ones looks really good! I was thinking of getting red or white ones. But all the troubles changing them, and knowing they might not be as good as the OEM, well, I do not like messing with brakes nor seatbelts. there is a limit for beauty

did not get "firstly ???" but I hope you are enjoying the win! Go XF! It is such a nice car.

 

Congratulations. U raised our resale value 0.05%. keep winning.
