The brick building where they normally line up the award winners was fenced off because of earthquake damage. They lined up the cars instead on the curb by the park.

These are the pics I snapped of the winners just before we hit the road about 10 this morning. They were still bringing cars up as we left, so here's a partial look.

Gol Rush is SWEET. My 8 year old daughter was standing here when the pic came up and said "WOW."

The copper color on the first one is EXACTLY what I have in mind for Big Olds. Anyone have any idea of the name of the color and manufacturer?

Bigolds,
That's not a color corrected photo. It was a candy color for sure, more a rich gold color. It would look great on your olds IMHO. On my monitor, the color has more orange in it than in person.

The color on that one was custom mixed from various candies and pearls to achieve the final color.

That Merc is named "Sundance" and there are lots more pics of it here... Sundance '51 Merc (http://wackydave.fotki.com/cars_-_various_themes/customs_and_flames/richard_diamonds_51/)
