Cool!!  Congrats!!

My old Eagle Waggie only once ever managed a 1st Place award.  Was at an annual Pontiac Club event in Galveston - they put me in the "4-Wheel-Drive" class; and I was the only entry!

Congrats! I've had it happen a time or two. This was my sedan. THIS one shocked me! I was in the *Classic Car - up to 2002* category. They were calling out numbers on the winners & I was packing up getting ready to leave,


Another time the Eagles did it (I have 2 & took them both that time). The sedan got a second place in class & the wagon beat it out for first!




Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Just took the wagon to one yesterday & didn't get anything. I DID get to see (ALMOST) my old Gremlin. Same year, same color, even an 'X' package like my old one!
