Put my car in a car show yesterday... Was not as fun as I thought it would be

Don't let it bother you. Easy said, I know but you gotta remember that this was a young kid who honestly doesn't have a clue how much work and/or money it takes to bring these cars to life.
My car is a real POS but it is mine and I saved it from going from a dirt floor shed to the scrapper so I'm happy because I enjoy cars. All of them.
My car won't be in a show anytime soon because money comes to me slowly but my skills are good and I have a lot of patience so it may be some time before I am ready. And I love driving it so much, I can't leave it parked long enough to get anything done. Even then, I won't be there to win. Just enjoy the company. Dennis
