[165th]

Here's an update on Adrian - It's one of those bad news good news updates!:

The bad news - Progress is such that a decision has been made not to rush her completion so Adrian will not be ready in time to be shown at the Trans Am Nationals. We want the car to be 'just so' and the deadline for the TA Nat's wasn't fitting that timeline.

So, with bad news came opportunity:

The good news is, Adrian has been accepted into the field and will be shown in November at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals (MCACN) in Chicago, and she will be featured in a special "Unveilings" portion of the show Saturday morning. This segment of the show is reserved for significant muscle cars that have recently completed concour restorations and have not been shown since the completion of the restoration.

The timing and type of featured segment of the MCACN show fit perfect for Adrian's unveiling. In fact, we've pretty much surmised that based on Adrian's history, this may be the first time Adrian has ever been shown in a car show format!

This year's unveilings has another significant Trans Am, namely a '69 Trans Am prototype so it should be a lot of fun.

Here's a link to the MCACN website 'Show Features' page.
