It was the first time this year that Bill had 1960-66 street machine class at a recent car show in entered his 1964 Mustang in a show. by Brad Kelly Building model cars with some plastic and glue, is probably the most traditional traditional hobby for kids. But what do those kids do when they get older and want to take model cars to the next level? If you're Bill Andrews, ou go out and buy a 1964 'ustang and put it on display display at car shows. For the past seven years, Bill has been periodically travelling the province and entering his pride and joy in various shows. After attending attending shows back in '85 and '88, he is back on the car show circuit this year following following a one-year layoff. Recently, at a show in Windsor, he copped top honours honours in the 1960-66 street machine class, and also won a trophy for being the com petitor to travel the furthest distance to enter. 'Yeah, it was a long way to go," said the Bowmanville resident. "But it was worth it." Bill's Mustang was one of the first to come off the assembly assembly line back some 27 years ago. Originally from Kentucky, the car was at an auction seven years ago when he first laid his eyes on it. One week later, it was in his driveway. "I replaced the interior and rebuilt the engine on it as a grade 12 school project," project," he recalled. "The first time I entered it in a show was back in '85 in Toronto, and it. ended up getting second place in its class." ' Though Bill chose 1 to drive his car down to Windsor, Windsor, it isn't uncommon to see some competitors take their cars to a show in a transport. transport. "Some guys will put their white gloves on and push the car in. Then, when the show is over, they'll put the gloves back on and push the car back out." While in a car show, Bill prefers the judges' decision of who has the best car, as opposed to the people's choice award that offers the paying customers a chance to cast a ballot on the car like the most. "Each judge has a specific area of the car that they look at," he said. "Some of the cars have a totally chromed engine, and that will attract the people." ' ! "What that means is the one with the most money invested invested in the car, wins." With that in mind, one would think that it must they] <Tri Darlington Mosquito Selects Play Well in First Tourney cost a lot of money to stay in the hobby. "It depends what you want to put into it and now much you want to spend," Bill said, explaining that you don't have to spend a lot to increase the value of a car. "Right now, my car is worth about double what I paid for it." He could only guess, but Bill estimated that the car would have been worth about $2,500-$3,000 when it first rolled off the assembly line. Today, it is worth somewhere in the neighborhood neighborhood of $18,000-$19,000.

With all the time he has sunk into his car, is it possible possible that we may see a for sale sign on it someday? "Nan. I can't see getting rid of it," Bill replies.

In what would be best described described as a physical contest last Wednesday, Orono scored a late goal in the second second half to post a 1-0 victory over the Flying Dutchman squad from Bowmanville. The win improved Orono's Orono's record on the season to 5-2-1, while Bowmanville shares the same 5-2-1 mark. All of the trouble in this match began in the second half when the referee issued a red card to one of the Orono Orono players for using abusive language. The card signified the end of the game for the player, and left the hometown hometown boys with only 10 defenders defenders for the remainder of the match. What followed shortly afterwards afterwards was a heated exchange exchange of words between two players, and then all of the players on the field huddled huddled together to exchange ingredients ingredients for a sandwich, we presume. When the recipe was complete, complete, one of the Orono players served up a knuckle sandwich to the nose of one of the Bowmanville players. The surprising part of the melee was that the referee didn't issue any red cards to members of either team. He chose, instead, to call both captains to centre field and issue a warning. It was a decision that left many of the people in atten- . dance scratching their heads. 'We're an up-and-coming team, and they're at the top," Orono's Jeff Vanhaver- beke explained. "There was a lot of tension between us because we were out to, win tonight and they kne)v it." Both teams played it even through the first half of the game, but Vanhaver- beke's goal on Orono's first shot of the second half seemed to take the starch out of the Bowmanville attack. attack.

"We're basically a ball control control team, that plays aggressive aggressive and well defensively." "As for the rough stuff, it was just two teams wanting to win that haven't lost too many games this year," he said, preferring to downplay the altercation. The incident seemed to raise the level of play of the Orono squad, as they appeared appeared to be flat beforehand. beforehand. "I think the rough stuff did charge us up in the second second half;" admitted Vanha- verbeke, who has scored two goals in his last three games.
