I am restoring a 1946 Cadillac Convertible, and I am wondering if any judges have any suggestions or advice for making the car a high point restoration.<P>Thanks,<P>Chris Thomas chthomas@web2000.net<BR>Very general request - suggest you get a copy of the AACA Judging Manual and attend a National Meet, a Judging School and the Apprentice Judging Program. With these you will know what we are looking for. Restoring a car for judging can be both a rewarding and frustrating experience. The main thing to keep in mind if you are restoring for AACA meets, we are looking for originality as the vehicle came from the factory.<p>[This message has been edited by ronbarn (edited 11-13-1999).]

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
