Yes, Mike, it should. But the practicality of the matter is that the uniqueness of these rare examples, while not on the check list, is heavily weighted psychologically. I personally know that there

The AACA (which I believe is the oldest car club to do concours judging) has wrestled with this for years. The standard is supposed to be how the car looked when it came off the assembly line. Yet it

John, Sounds like a great idea. What do you do with classifications on Auto-X? Are there "Novice" categories? Street vs Track cars? No timers? Actually, that last thought might be worth looking at, i

To continue the AACA parallel, they have a unrestored class as well as a senior class for cars which have already won the top awards. The unrestored class seems like a particularly good idea for Tige

My dad has been showing 55,56,57 Chevys fro about 10 years and the AACA has a very open judging format. You can not judge your class but you are requested to judge others. They score by a score sheet

You will ALWAYS have the bickering when you have judging, which is one reason I'm not a big fan of judging.

Great idea. We sort of do that anyway . . . we have fun runs with things like the bag over the head trick and other stuff to keep the competition light. The serious guys belong to an autocross club
