Question about Bloomington Gold
When I go to get my car judged for Survivor, there is a Mandatory Parking on Friday and Judging is on Sunday. Does this mean the car has to stay parked there all weekend?
Anyone with experience on having a car judged at Bloomington care to shed some light on what to expect. Would stink to be car-less for the weekend and driving 2 down would suck too.... coming all the way from north of Detroit

Contact the folks at Bloomington. http://www.bloomingtongold.com/index_bg.php They should be able to answer your questions.
Good Luck!

So I contacted Bloomington and the Car sits all weekend.
I guess I'll have to shuttle or Taxi to the Hotel...
Anyone know if you are being judged for Survivor, should I take my Speaker Bar out for the Show?
I plan on switching my Floor mats to the Originals and T-Tops switch from my Mirrored ones back to the Originals for the Show.
I have a re-production Manual in the Glove Box, is that a Negative or a Positive for Survivor?
Any other tips?

I had my 68 SURVIVOR Certified in 2009. I would remove the speaker bar and put the original T-Tops and mats back. If I recall correctly, no documentaion is judged in the SURVIVOR certification. Please contact me if you have any questions 908 910-4800. Good luck.

I kind of wanted to be Judged just to find out what is Original and What is not and What Percentage and to learn more about my Car. I plan on going to some NCRS meets as well just to learn more about my Car.

Hi km,
Since you mention that you want to learn about what's original on your car and what isn't you might want to verify that the judging sheets are sent to you so you can see all the judges notes.
I know the NCRS Flight Judging sheets are sent to the owner, but I'm not sure about BG Survivor.
Perhaps Jax can comment.
Regards,
Alan
I agree with Mike that a NCRS Chapter Judging Event might be a good first step for you.

In 2009, when mine was certified, a one page form with the results was given to the owner at the end of the judging event.

Waiting for Spring to do just that.
The Bloomington Gold thing just seemed like it would be fun and informational.
I plan to do more NCRS stuff as well when it comes up.
