Displaying Removable Hardtops

Recommended Posts

I hope to enter my Chrysler TCs in the HPOF class this summer, in Louisville. Since the TC has a soft top and a removable hard top, I need to know the proper way to display the top for judging. Should the hard top be on the car, or should it be on the ground, beside the car?

The HPOF cars are evaluated based on the originality of the unrestored components rather than point judged. These cars are still held to AACA judging standards which require the top to be up and windows up. You can show the car with either top up, as both are original. Since AACA does not require removal of components to judge another component, the hardtop can stay on the car and the soft top will not be evaluated (no deduction) or you can show with the soft top up and it will be evaluated with no deduction for not having a hardtop. I would not recommend displaying the top next to the car, as space is limited at some shows. Looking forward to seeing it in Louisville.
