judging

[Ben Meisner <meisnerinc@xxxx>]

Hi Club;

Forgive me for being a fool . Would someone in the club , preferably judges answer these questions.
(1) what does a concourse car , represent . how is it judged . what are the marks for each section. what forms the deductions for a 300 letter car.

(2) What constitutes a peoples choice award . what are the judging parameters . again what are the deductions .

(3) are there classes at the meets for people such as myself, who drive our cars as much as possible . Last year seven thousand miles after June 24th. till October 30th ( winter in Canada )

(A) I make as good an effort as possible at trying to make the car original. But when it comes for example to the clock. I convert it to Quartz to ensure that it will run into the next century . I have power coated my rims in the interest of making sure that they will never rust and will be around for the next hundred years even if it is driven. I have added new under coating on the under side to ensure that rust never ever gets on the floor pans . similarly on the interior . I have changed the bolts that have shown obvious rust wear to stainless steel again to ensure that they never are the cause of rust . I have power coated the supports for the bumper again to make sure they never will rust again. does all of this make my car a failure in the eyes of judges . I have the correct interior, motor , paint colors for air cleaners etc. I have tried as best as possible to build a car that will last well into the future , I believe in my heart it is far better then when it originally rolled off the assembly line. I wonder aloud and I'm sure as do many people who belong to this list and are afraid to ask.


Thank you judges...
