Cruise to the Ville September 14th 2013 Mitchellville, Ia

I know most of you guys can't make it to this, but this year I'm putting on the local car show again this year. Last year we had 76 cars and trucks. We gave out 15 trophies to the top 15 vehicles, and 3 plaques. Best paint, best interior, and best engine. This year I've tried stepping it up by trophies to the top 20, and 3 plaques which are a pinstriped sign by a very good striper. I added a best truck trophy, and a best diesel trophy. I also added a most represented car club trophy. We have no classes as I don't have the staff to help me get it all done in the short time we have. I'm trying hard to raise money to help the Marfan Foundation. Last year I donated the 50/50 proceeds to them. This year I had T-shirts made, we will have a 50/50, and I'm putting together baskets to be silent auctioned off to help raise more money for Marfan's. This year I decided I'd try my hand at building some trophies. Here's the Best Diesel so far. I have to wire brush it and make or come up with a base for it. I'm going to try to straighten the top out as it being crooked is driving me nuts! This is made from all cummins engine parts except for the chain. That is from a dodge NP241DHD transfer case.

That's just awesome! Way cool! I wish I had a diesel ride that could win one of those! That's great.
