Since Im not working right now, and have the time to do it, Im wonndering if i should put the Nissan in WOW. In some ways I dont think its worthy of being in the show, but Ive seen other cars, mostly imports, that I didnt think belonged there.

I know this just opens up the door for flaming and jokes, but Im just looking for a general opinion from BCM members, not if you like the car or not.:goof Just if you think it would have a place in Milwaukees biggest car show.

Thanks.

Yes, that would be so much nicer than that clown with the green econo-box with the stupid looking mirrored dollar sign in place of the front passenger seat. Nice clean car you have.

Unless you have already signed up I don't think you'll be able to get you car in the show, unless you are in 'the know'.....:shades

without a doubt one of the nicest imports, not seen everyday and makes great power. awesome display of hard work and great idea and planning! but you knew I'd say that.

I don't know if WOW is Mil towns biggest car show, but yeah, nice clean import, I am sure there are cars in the show less worthy!!!

Actually, he can get a hold of Joe Konkel. They are still needing cars. I heard this on Wisconsin Hotrod radio today.

^^^ Easily more cars at the Father's day show.....

That is surprising, I thought there would be a list of people waiting to get in with only 2 weeks until the show......

I would like to see it there as a reference on correct motor
assembly, that little 4 looks like pro's put it together ;)

Seriously I normaly go to WOW for the laugh factor, your
car would look great there. Last year there was a simple
supercharged blue Mustang that got lots of views...doh!

I definetly think it's worthy. It looks great, shows that alot of time and hard work were put into it. And more then anything it proves that you can mod an import AND do it very tastefully. Maybe some kids will see it and get the hint.

I'd say yes. I am more of a domestic guy but your car is nice.:thumbsup

Do it Dave! Your car will offset the usual clowns with 12 televisions in their trunk and ill fitting fiberglass fenders.

Take it Dave. You really don't see many nice 240's around anywhere.

For the FIRST time in 15+ years I am not taking any cars. Myself, Customs Unlimited, Rod & Comp (Pat) all agreed and are NOT participating, we have our reasons. I am not saying by any means that us three made the show, but damn right they need cars-without us they are 50 cars shy! With that said, I don't think WOW is worthy of YOUR car!! I'll be there to watch Konkel go down in flames, though.

I definitely think it's worthy for any car show.

Dave I think you should put it in most of the imports there are trash, and your looks so nice put it in

I like it, Im dont know much bout imports but I would check it out. Just a nice simple clean modded import. Looks better then the gaudy sheet ive heard about there.

There were several late model ponies there but if I recal
right (I go there to drink) yours was the nicest. There
was another decent one but it was kinda gaudy wasnt it?

The thing about it, what have you got to lose by entering it. I've seen some pretty rough rides at other high-end shows, and your car is pretty damn nice.

Yeehaw
01-31-2009, 06:01 PM
dave i remember looking at it at the 2006 stay tuned car show that 240 is pure sex why not show it off?

on the other hand WOW usually kinda blows lol

Dave I love your car and think it is more than WOW worthy.

Russ Jerome

WOW usually kinda blows lol

Thats the whole point! We usualy get together and wander
around bad mouthing cars, cars people actual work on unlike most of mine that sit in a garage getting nothing
done!

Going to WOW is like people watching at Walmart on 100
and Layton, its just fun ta do!

Only because no one else said No!! Nice car, go for it. Had you mentioned it earlier, Becky said we could have saved a spot in our group.

I did. Gramps ss wore me out in the past with car shows.:chair:

01-31-2009, 07:43 PM
I said no because:

1. I don't think it'll be appreciated enough.
2. Not a car show fan.
3. I don't think car show's are 240's bag. I actually can't stand seeing 240's at car shows.
4. I don't have a 4th reason actually. I just like to keep typing cause I have some time to kill before I go out. But it's true you don't see too many nice 240's around. You don't see enough of them at tracks either. At most auto-X events it'll usually be me and maybe one other 240. It's a shame really. They are great track cars. Really fun to drive fast. I just thought of a 5 actually.
5. You should save your entry fee on WOW and save it for an Auto-X event.

I truley appreciate all the kind words everyone.:)

Im going to try to find a trailer, and call on Monday morning to see if its too late to enter.

I do wish i would of asked BCSM earlier, I would of been honored to show with you guys and gals. But i didnt think you would want a ricer in with all that Muscle.:goof

Memphis
01-31-2009, 09:00 PM
I'm sure we could set up a trailer...see if you can get in first.

Your car is nice, I say go for it...I haven't been to WOW in years and its not a big deal to me so maybe I'm not sure on the vibe there but a clean well done import is always a nice break from anything riced out.

02-01-2009, 07:28 PM
If you're proud of the car, and wish to show it, off, go for it!

Memphis
