Your car is pretty much a sleeper so most people probably walked right by thinking it was stock.  
In that case restored/all original muscle car \> stock Vette.

But people need to walk up to the car and look around to see those.  
Im guilty of walking right by a late model car that appears stock without a second though, regardless of if its a Vette, Camaro, Mustang, etc sometimes.

Not that I don’t have respect for older generation cars but in my eyes there is no way shape or form that you should have came in last place.

I remember about 3 years ago when I had my turbo Scion xB @ a car show, and I lost to a nearly stock xB with altezza tails! My car was clean, nice wheels, lowered (with real quality lowering springs) AND I had a good size front mount, SHEESH!
