Volksworld Show 2007 part 7

Well - 4.15pm came today and it was results time - one award for Best of Show and then awards for vehicles classified as top twenty - Was totally stunned when they read out my name for a top 2o prize!!!!!!!

Won a funky pro-sign decorated tool box, trophy and Meguiars polishing kit - cool eh!

Best of show went to the AMAZING Gold coloured oval on Fuchs and then there were two type 3's and a type 34 in the top twenty - not bad going for the type 3 stable !!!!




Here are the prizes - the tool box is way too nice to actually put tools in me thinks!!!!
