TY, I am working on the small details for the MCA show in Jacksonville this weekend and just entered the SAAC 51 in Atlanta in August and want to get as much done as possible before the show.

Bob,

You and Jeff Y judged my 69 GT 350 in Melbourne FL. a few years ago at a show and I printed the sheets from the report and have been working on correcting as much as possible before this show. I was awarded a Bronze based on the report and over the last few years made a lot of corrections. Your help and comments have helped me work on making my car better and understand the next show will find additional issues and will keep working to get a better grade om my Shelby.

FYI it was not on every car that had a front license plate bracket because back in the day not all states required front License plates.I would also mention that if you choose to mount the bracket that you take any plates off of the front and back for the judging part of the show. That also goes for non stock floor mats ,caution fan stickers and those 1980's vintage battery white with red terminal warning tag.
