dante colina from peoples car before(dealer ug vw)and two other judges which i forgot the name.
awarding was done on the night of the 23rd, wa jud ko mag dahom coz i had strong competitors
the yellow was an original the thing "safari series", and the red buggy was well financed dr.Jurado
spent 250t for the buggy, and my buggy was built in my small shop in talamban at a very conservative
budget, pila ra gud sweldo sa usa ka dj diri. but the show ended well sa among category i won,
the red buggy won best in paint. lipay pud ko kay dili lang money ako gi pour sa akong buggy
but real hard work, reasearch and a lot of imagination. kapoy sad apil ug show, but it was
worth coz i met new friends, and seen old ones too. kaning buggy joined a lot of events
