Due to stupid and so far unexplained malfunctions of my ISP, the
Winners of the ASKEE CAR SHOW could not be posted to this newsgroup.
I sent the post, eight times, and it doesn't turn up on usenet.
Typical...


So, the winners are posted, on the Ascii Art Webring homepage.
Look down on the bottom of the page, and you'll see the link
to the winners' page.


I can't post a URL through my ISP, either. Unless I do it,
like so:


h t t p://w w w.a n g e l f i r e.c o m/j r o/ m e 2/r i n g.h t m l

Best I kin do, and appologies fer not bein' able to do better.

Jonathon, Ill post for you...it feels sooooooooo good to be a helping
hand ;)
Prudence

for a trip to the ring, http://www.angelfire.com/me2/jro/winners.html

or view JRO's commentary and results of the contest right here:

Well, I can see THIS is a dismal failure. Only three cars ever
turned up, and of those, only one based on a real car.

Hokay, since the rest of you apparently don't OWN cars, here's the
results:

David wins "Best of Show", with his 1973 GT Beetle.
Features and options:
 1300 body shell with flat windsheild and [ shaped bumpers
(fenders). The gearbox (transmission) was the 1300 close ratio
manual box bolted to a 1584cc flat four air-cooled engine.
Other GT extras were the half padded dashboard and the special
wheels which were also on the 1974 Jeans Beetle which featured
the blue demin interior.

Geraldine wins "Best Hearse", for her... her hearse?
It looks like a hearse, anyways. Options included:


Curtains, in your choice of black or dark grey.

Four different shades of black paint.

Optional cremation.

Special sound system (plays only dirges).

Wet-bar, with a complimentary selection of embalming fluids.

Dead - standard or "un" (undead available only as special,
                              dealer-installed option).


Congratulations, dear.

I guess that wraps it up, for the First Ever ASKEE CAR SHOW.
Look for the next Askee Car Show, in your area... For you folks
who'll need a ride, call me.



Well, I can see THIS is a dismal failure. Only three cars ever
turned up, and of those, only one based on a real car.

Hokay, since the rest of you apparently don't OWN cars, here's the
results:

David wins "Best of Show", with his 1973 GT Beetle.
Features and options:
 1300 body shell with flat windsheild and [ shaped bumpers
(fenders). The gearbox (transmission) was the 1300 close ratio
manual box bolted to a 1584cc flat four air-cooled engine.
Other GT extras were the half padded dashboard and the special
wheels which were also on the 1974 Jeans Beetle which featured
the blue demin interior.

Geraldine wins "Best Hearse", for her... her hearse?
It looks like a hearse, anyways. Options included:


Curtains, in your choice of black or dark grey.

Four different shades of black paint.

Optional cremation.

Special sound system (plays only dirges).

Wet-bar, with a complimentary selection of embalming fluids.

Dead - standard or "un" (undead available only as special,
                              dealer-installed option).


Congratulations, dear.
