Default Finally our 494 Point Roadster from the MARC National in Ohio

Please enjoy the pictures of our Roadster. Val worked for 2 years alone every night on the chassis and 9 years later we completed the car with the Help of so many people and especially Ken and Ron Ehrenhofer and the barn crew. We achieved the MARC of Excellence, HENRY Award and Highest scoring car at the meet. Truly a team effort to achieve this.

Mark,

Congrats to you and Val!

GREAT looking restored car! Something to take great pride in for sure.

Can you expand on the 6 points that were lost in the restoration/judging?

Thanks.

stunning car and congratulations!

I was also wondering where the 6 points went, and though that may be obsessing, one always wants to know.

Beautiful. I like the color combination, too. Where did you get the floor mat? I bought one recently that I don't like as much as the one that is in the car now.

Gee wiz, Mark and Val, that is one gorgeous car. I have followed this build closely from the git-go and know the effort that you two and your 'associates' have put forward. You are deserving of all the accolades that come your way. I have judged in the presence of Val and can vouch for her interest, knowledge and effort. I know she was a BIG part of this effort. I could tell that from the first picture that I saw of that chassis in her living room. Congratulations, outstanding work.
