Typical chevy guy.

If you don't think brand sponsorship has nothing to do with it wait for the Barret Jackson auction, it's sponsored by chevy and ford so they go to commercial every time a Mopar comes up for sale.

The Jones/Mr2 car was definitely an awesome piece of work. I'm a diehard Chrysler guy, but had to laugh when I looked this up.

I will definatly say the driller car is over the top definatly like it. That American car painted by Todds Extreme Paint is also very deserving of best appearing award.
