Then it was time for some awards. As everybody knows, or is finding out quickly, CMU doesn't
take up valuable drive time for a car show. But, with this being the Mini 50 we combined the two.
We had a 3 day moving car show. Of course you could check out the Minis while they were
parked. We also combined the Minis into 4 classes, slide window, roll up window, variant,
and non A series engine Minis. Pictured below is the slide window winner, an immaculate '67 S
brought from Texas by Arlen & Billy E. The other 1st place winners were:
Roll up window: Chuck G., Tennessee
Variant: Mark and Terri C., Tennessee (Moke)
Non A series: Brian S., South Carolina (Vtec Elf)
Best of Show: Mike & Rhonnie G., Florida (Minissan ZSX)

While we don't take the time for car shows, we love to spend hours and hours of time at home
gluing, welding, duct taping, painting, and as seen below, bungee cording old Mini parts together and putting
them on top of our heads. It was time for the hat competition!

There were some creative hats, and some that made you wonder...
