Unique Performance is having another Car Show with Chip Foose. They did this in 2004 and it was a great show.

So they are having a clone of 2004's show? That's not very Unique.

Are you trying to say re-VINd '67 fastbacks arent unique ?
Possibly when built on an assembly line?

As in Fake Shelby= Carl Shebly vs Carroll Shelby.

"Unique" builds fake Shelbys, and crappy copies at best.

I doubt that they would say anything... thats what would make it fun. I should take one with me posing next to each car.. and then ask Joey for Shelbys autograph :)

Just checked out the linkie-poo... actually looks like fun. It would be cool to see all of the entries, NOT the not so unique cars... We are so there Wade :) camera and all!

I had a walk through both their shops about two weeks ago. I Could not believe the way they are done. From buying any pos they can find, to the way they spot paint the cars after the installers tear them up. I'm thinking dam guys, ever heard of fender covers and tape, no way I'm paying $256,000 for this. It was an eye opener. When I talked to the guys they said it was all they had time for, they would be told to do a weeks work and have it ready the next day. I was thinking the old saying, You can have it right or you can have it now, but your not getting it RIGHT now. :eek:

Based on the severred relationship between Unique and Shelby, you can bet there wont be the Shelby turn-out there has been in years past. I've had my Shelby out there each time they've done this...and it has gone downhill each year. Other than that, there should be some nice cars show up and I might bring the "stock" Dodge, since Shelby designed it and I won't have to worry about them spinning off a bad clone of it.

Love this show and am lookin' forward to it. :) I chose to compete in the Foose Corral so I don't think I'm competing in my class. :confused:

Regardless, my one and only goal is to meet my idol, shake his hand, and - since he's judging those in the corral - I'd even love to hear him critique my car. LOL! (Hell, that man could shit on my hood and I'd thank him!) :p

I just hope the rain holds off. Not ganna work too much on the undercarriage, etc. at the rate this weather's goin'. :mad: Good luck to everyone who's showing! See some of y'all there. :cool:

Good event lots of nice cars......NASAProRacing had some of their AI and CMC cars there. AER brought some of their sponsored cars and tons of 67-68 Stangs showed up. Best part was easy prking, free entry and just lots of nice horsepower. 5 bucks to see Sam Packs cars weren't worth it.
