Default Dave.....

My '73 has been judged four times at the same Chapter Meet over the past five years. The same people are the judges judging the same areas over and over on my car. My car has improved greatly in the past five years and I have spent many thousands of dollars to correct what I was told was wrong with the car. Many many hours of time and labor too.

I just can't get this car past the Chapter Second Flight so I have decided that the car won't be judged on the Chapter Level and especially in the same Chapter. The only set of judges to recognize the improvements are the interior group.

I have decided that a Regional Meet is next for my car to get a truer picture of where the car is at.

Things have change in the JG over the years that points were not deducted for previously.

I have said to some of my friends that If I keep having this car judged...someday it will be a Third Flight car?

Go figure?

I guess this is a good Forum to vent MY frustrations. Thanks guys for listening.


Peter

Congatulations. Your car looks fantastic. I have never had my car judged. Just got a NCRS Tech Manual a Judging Guide book a few weeks ago. I probably have a long way to go. Good Luck!
