Show up with the bugs and nicks of a fun road trip and show them with pride.
Your car will look 100% better than the cars that don't show. Mine's going
to look like it usually does, mediocre garage paint job, half-a$$ polishing
on the remaining annodizing, tatty daily-driver interior and the schmutz of
2200 miles coating the engine compartment. I don't plan on prying my butt
out of the seat after five days and washing and waxing a car. Not going to
happen. I plan on showing in the "Blue-collar lunch pail" class and I
expect the trophy. "Most interesting thing pulled from a radiator" and
"Most varied collection of fast food wrappers in footwell" awards will be in
my sights as well.
The hardtop will be an Albatross around your neck for at least some part of
the trip despite the gas savings. Side curtains make long drives less
punishing, a Judson on a 948 is fun, a 5-speed is a gift from the gods, and
if the trailer queens bother you, come over and hang with the other jealous
guys like me who will be making catty comments about them while secretly
dreaming.
See you there!
