...on representing our big Mercs this weekend at an indoor 3-day car show.
Details:
http://carlcasper.com/ (http://carlcasper.com/)
You had to submit an application and photos months ago and then wait to see if you were approved.
I am sure this is the first time a Marauder has ever been in this show.
While setting up lastnight, I already got the all-too familiar "What is it?" questions.
I did decide to enter competition though I don't expect to win. The competition is incredibly tough and there have always been rumors of favortism.
That said, I've gone to this show almost every year since I was born so just being in the show is a fullfilled dream.
I'll post pics of my Marauder and other vehicles later this weekend.
Anybody in the area is welcome to come out. I'll be in the North Wing.

Good luck!! I always answer any question thrown my way as nice as possible. That always helps win some votes. Plus it shows how into your car you are.

Thanks again, everyone.
It was maddening trying to get the Merc show ready today. Turnout was very good for the first night of the show.
Met a few Marauder owners too and told them about the site, and the Kentucky meet. Hopefully, they'll post up.
Here are a few pics:

I competed in the Conservative Hardtop 2000-2006 category.
Next year, I'll have a much better display. This year's display was done on a shoestring budget. It'll include carpeting and better stanchions.
More pics have been added to my Supermotors account, including some taken with a semi-pro camera.

I was glad to represent the Marauder community and help spread the word about our 4-doors.
I met several other local Marauder owners and directed them to the site. Hopefully, they'll post up soon.
Thanks again, everyone. :beer:
