I so agree. Although I am about two years away yet from getting "Penelope" ready I am looking forward to sharing the History of this car and the many lines of firsts that Packard blazed the trails. If I had an Ego, I would be pushing for a C1 car, but I will be happy if she only comes out at a C4 as long as people get to appreciate one of the Last Detroit beasts.
I have never Car showed before. I have hundreds of Air-shows where I showed my restored aircraft, new sales etc. It was always about peoples fascination and their desire to learn about what makes it tic, that I enjoy. Their is nothing greater than a third grade boy who was so fascinated by airplanes and had a million questions that I wound up giving a ride to and let him take the wheel. Today, that boy just graduated last week with an Aviation degree and is now a commercial pilot. That is what it is about for me, check the ego at the door.
