We have an "under construction" class at some of the shows around here.

Bring your unfinished ride to the Symco Shakedown... we'd love to see what guys are building.

I'm bringing mine!

It's pretty far from you, but there is a show up here called the Canadian Unfinished Nationals, in Paris Ontario. I think its usually one of the first weekends in June each year.

I know I have seen some show coverage on either this site or some others of some other Unfinished shows in the US. The one that comes to mind right away I think was in Washington... but could be wrong on that.

I've been to a few shows where they had an unfinished class. Even won a trophy a couple of times with my 27 before it was done. The very first time I rented a u haul trailer and took it people loved seeing one that wasn't done.......got a lot of people climbing under and over it. I laid an album of construction pictures on the seat and was amazed how many people would stand there looking through the whole book.

I think it is a great way to let the average rod builder who is in the middle of a build get his car out and get some positive feedback. Makes laying on your back all those nights in the garage seem worthwhile, and it gives you a boost to get on to the next step.

As always excellent advise from Don .During the 5 months I was building mine I took it to every show I could find , including local cruise nights . Always had a crowd looking and taking pics . Even won a trophy at a big show . They had it to be awarded for some other catagory and gave it too me cause they liked my build . So hell yes if it's good enough , take it everywhere , have some fun .
