WOW...what a show. They broke all records. So many cars they ran out of goody bags and registration forms. I heard from 2 sources that there were 420 cars and also heard there were 500+ cars. Either way, it was spectacular.

Awards started with the top 150 cars and the PT'ers made a great showing. Winners in that catagory were in no particular order (and if I forget anyone, I'm sorry...post other winners here):

Scott & Susan Hill, Hank & Judy LaBor, Richard Dickerson, Brandy Boyd, Sherri Austin, Pete & Debbie Hackney, Tony Hackney, Tim Willis, Anne Willis, Becky Allen and Jeff Brackett. (thanks Tim...Dwight & Joan Fretwell got a top 150 also)

Scott & Susan Hill won a top award for BEST PAINT.

Roger Austin won one for his 1960 Chevy Biscayne.

Congrats to all of them. Our little PT's made a heck of a showing amonst all of the other fine cars at the show.

And we actually had the most cars from a CLUB. But we didn't win the "Club Participation Award". We had 20 PT's there. Apparently the show organizers could not make a distinction between CLUB and GARAGE. Hughes Automotive took the "CLUB" participation award. They are a garage. Bays. Lifts. Oil changes. Engine work. Alignments. Tire sales. You get the picture. They had 28 cars there from friends and customers. Had a Ford club, Camaro club, any other type of car club had won, no issue. But a repair shop and garage beat us out. You could over hear people throughout the crowd say the same thing..."But they aren't a club, they're a garage".

We all still looked damn good.

Great show! Congratulations to all the winners! It was great seeing all y'all again and well worth trudging through all the snow to get there. The ride home was a lot easier but it looks like more snow today or tomorrow.

Definitely a GREAT SHOW! If anyone has never been to this show you should absolutely make it a point to go to it in the future. Some amazing pieces of nostalgic history along with the beautiful machines of today, add to the mix the incredible Chrysler PT Cruiser(LOL). We always seem to show the restorers, the collectors and rodders that the PT's can and do compete! I heard more than one comment from the crowd during the awards about "how can those pts be winning so many?". They need to face that facts. We are a force to be reckoned with! HA HA!!! I LOVE IT!

Congrats to ALL of the winners. It was a well deserved win.

We had 20 PT's there out of approx 420 cars total. That's 4.7% of the total cars there. But we took home 8% of the trophies. Twelve of the 20 PT's there won an award. Darn good numbers.

Scott & Susan won the shows BEST PAINT award. One of the top awards. Best paint over everything there! Most impressive.

Someone was definitely looking at us.

Another great time at a fantstic show! lot's of fine rides, some of the nicest I've seen, and as Rick said the PT's made a great showing. Thanks for all that came and congratulations to all the winners. I feel like the NASCAR fans and participants...no more shows for 3 months. Withdrawal!! Happy holidays to everyone.

All I see on the Cruise In Photos link on the Carolina PT Cruisers page is "Autofair Spring 2008".
Am I missing something?

Edit: I found the pics on one of the Autofair links. We could use a direct link from the Cruise in Photos section next to the Spring link.

Nice paint on that car! I like the Chrysler wings theme.
