I'm not 100% sure why, but it was nerve-wracking for me to watch the car being judged this year.

The 1969 former owner came from California.
The 1974 former owner came from South Carolina.
The 1976 former owner came from Florida.

They were awesome guys to hang out with and all of them want the car back.

I'll post up some pics soon.
so your going for 99.9% next time is what I'm hearing? Haha that's so awesome Dave! Congrats I knew the car was gonna score higher then you thought.

Thanks Frank!!!

I'm not sure if it's wiring or the brakes themselves. It was working when we left but not long after the truck brakes were taking the entire load while braking. At one point I was braking while coming around a corner and it felt like the back end of the truck lifted off the ground.

Thanks Frank!!!

A few cars had problems with starting and some had problems with stalling out but the green Z ran great.
