Last year's unique Top 40 awards (and also the Best Under Construction award) consisted of a 1:24 scale die cast 1949 Ford Woody Wagon (in a variety of colors) mounted onto a wood base, with a colorful upright plaque. These went over VERY well, and we will be doing something similar again with die cast cars this year. Many people have told us these were among the neatest awards they've seen at a car show, and look classy when displayed in your home. We think die cast cars might become a trophy trend, so remember where you saw them first. Thanks to the show sponsor, Ron Hassel of All-Midwest Sales (which represents many major auto parts manufacturers), for these great awards.
