Well, we took second at the show. Far better than I thought it would given the level of competition. Many thanks for the help of many folks, and in particular Jimmyz.
I finally had decent light to photograph the old girl, so here are some shameless pics from the show. This will likely be the last show I put her in, I am focusing on Anubis from here on out.

Re: No Quarter at the Seattle International Bike Show.
Looks Good, shucks I didn't do anything. Wish we could have had them next to each other. Maybe next year we'll take first and second. I guess I better start building to have on done by next September to enter. No Quarter really looked good in there.
