It would be better for you to spend the $ on an NCRS judging guide. It will tell you all the things you will need to pass the "Survivor" catagory. Reguardless of paperwork...the good judges know what's original & what's not. Especially the paperwork!!

The cracked up paint job will not make a difference in judging. They will check 4 catagorys, engine compartment, underside, body, and exterior. Build sheet does not matter. Do not paint or change anything, like valve covers etc. If you have a scapbook about your car or any other documentation, take it with you. They have a part about scrapbooks also.Lots of fun hope you enjoy! LT
