The whole Gene Winfield select 6 is a sham. The car is picked before the show even begins. It's political just like all cars shows. Which is really pretty said. Here's how I know. The Lincoln was invited to come we were selected. The owner and build is one of the builder dozen which is a event at the show and the car is on the Nationals flyer. Winfield prize money is 15000.00, 10000.00 to winner and 1000.00 each for the other 5. The 1000.00 check was made out and dated June 5 2018. It's not hard to figure out. So the five never had a chance to win.
The white Cadilac is a 1953 which the father of the owner now and another partner in 1955 sent it to (Italy) to have it made. The cost at the time was 30000.00. The father died not long after and since the partner had the most money invested he got the car.many years pass the son tracks the car down buys it and restores it. Note he RETSORES it. So really it doesn't even quallify to be in this show. But it was a nice car.

The "Lincoln" was actually a Contenintal and for 1956 and 1957 was a separate make with very few built at great expense. The other cars are nice but to modify that one was a travesty!
