Default NCRS Top Flight Award

After five years of tinkering, buying parts, and asking questions on this forum, my 1964 Coupe receive an NCRS Top Flight award yesterday.

I want to thank all of the members who responded to my questions and gave advice thru the Forum and follow-up emails. Couldn't have done it without you.

Also, in the 6 hours of judging, I learned alot about my car from guys who really care about Corvettes and their restoration.

My advice to the forum members is that if you think that you would like your car to be judged, go ahead an do it. It's a great learning experience.

Yes. A number of cars were judged and the car is judged by separate teams on Operational, Chassis, mechanical, Interior, and Exterior attributes.

Congratulations on the blue ribbon. That is an achievement to be proud of. Paul sent some shots of the event, and your car looks super, and not only that is obviously very correct. With Paul's magic detailing touch, how could you miss! Bravo!

Congrats, good for you!
I've had my '62 judged twice, and I learned a tremendous amount about it on both occasions. The second time was at the Michigan regional two years ago, man what a pool of Corvette knowledge at that event, everyone from GM engineers to retired GM line workers.
In terms of learning how and why my car was built the way it was, IMHO not much could ever beat that experience.
