Well, how are the classes selected? Do you pick them yourself or is there a committee? How does that work?
5:59
I'm involved in selecting them, but I'm only one member of a committee.
6:03
We have a committee, and I think that committee is an extremely distinguished committee, and they let me on it too, and I think I'm probably the least distinguished person on that committee.
6:16
But before the committee gets involved, we have a nomination process because the idea is that we want to draw on as many people as possible to make nominations.
6:31
So every year, late in the year, we seek nominations.
6:35
We have a piece of software on the internet to accept their nominations, a survey process.
6:43
And we also do accept... written nominations as well.
11:21
Who are the members of the class? I know they could find this on the website, but who are the members of the class this year?
6:24
Now, have you, have you always been a car guy, or were you just a Mustang guy that just happened to, you know, fall in love with the, uh, that brand?
6:33
Initially, I was just looking for a car to get around in.
6:36
After that, you know, after I've had it for so long, it's like it kind of became a part of me.
6:41
And at that time, I, and just enjoyed having the car.
6:44
And ever since I got it back from the repair shop, back in 2008 is when I finally got it back, I joined up several Mustang clubs in Southern California and went to various car shows and so forth, and, uh, basically told the story of the car while I was at, uh, at the car shows, and the people liked the story behind the car.
7:03
And in the People's Choice Awards, I would get the votes because of the story behind the car, not that the car was in the greatest of condition compared to a lot of the other cars that are there.
7:12
It's just that they liked the story behind it.
8:09
So what, so what are you doing with the car now? What, i- is this still a, a daily driver for you, or do you j- uh, is, are you a hobbyist and drive it on the weekends? What, what are you using it for now?
