The car earned the Top Flight award with 96.3 points. I have corrected a few points that were deducted to hopefully achieve a higher score if I decide to have it Flight Judged in the future. This is the 4th time I had a car Flight Judged (2 Chapter & 2 Regional events) and received Top Flight status on all 4 attempts. I had my previously owned 68 Coupe SURVIVOR judged and received a Bloomington SURVIVOR certificate as well. I really enjoy the judging aspect because I try to as well prepared as possible on the day of the judging. Flight judging will certainly make you very familiar with your car and have fun in the process.

Welcome you should post photos here as well as in the RED forum.
A LOCAL LT1 !!! Where in Greer?
My car is the Brandshatch Green survivor above -
I usually drive it to the Greenville Cars & Coffee at the Michelin Headquarters over off of I85 and Pelham Rd.


I live just off of Pelham Road near Roper Mountain.
I have a Red Red 71 LT1 Roadster in my shop right now which I am putting the correct stripe on the hood... and fixing the door jambs, boot jamb for NCRS judging.
