Hi Roberta. I will try to bring a 73 to this one. :-) Updates on Hotel, etc. is appreciated. See you at BG.

Any 1973 Buick Century stuff? Always looking.

Thanks! That makes it even better. The yellow car I posted is not the car I am looking to put in HPOF while original it has had the engine compartment redone and the undercarriage gone thru. I want to try 36F with it and see what she does. (I am a masochist!) The car I am talking about is blue and is a base 350 2bbl bucket seat car that everyone tells me to use as a donor for 1 of my 73 4speeds. One of those will be ready for next year! (1 of 92 undergoing a frame off now, Was in Hemmings MM in 06) I am having too much fun driving the base car and not really having to worry too much about it, and it would be a shame to tear it up. Knowing I can put it in HPOF is a good incentive to leave it "as is" and seems to be the Main reason for the class. Thank you Mr Moskowitz DPC is indeed an option for the car! I seem to be getting rejected by the downloader for the blue cars photos? :-) P.S. I have an addiction to 1973 Buick Gran Sport Stage 1's. I own 5-- 2 are 4speeds.

Thanks for the responses and the welcome. I will drive the car put miles on it and enjoy it. Thank you Matthew. I look forward and am registering this week for my first AACA event, @ Hershey no less. Here is a picture of the car going into 36F 73 Century Gran Sport Stage 1 SunCoupe. 1 of 45 built-1 of 23 w electric roof operation. 1 of 4 SCO code 0 (color unknown) Original 73,000 miles, Sloan Museum documented.

Seems like I answered my own question? In the AACA judging book the evaluation sheet said that the car listed was rejected for a full repaint. Oh well I will just bring the others. The SunCoupe is all original but, a Concours winner! 1000pt. judging at MCACN 2013. Lets see how she does in 36F

Hi. My name is Philip Roitman and I am a new member. I have a few 1973 Century Gran Sports that I plan to show in class 36F. (Stage 1 SunCoupe and Stage 1 4speed when that is done) My question for HPOF is I recently purchased a of course 1973 century 350-2bbl bucket seat car. The car is all original down to the original rear brake shoes. 49500 miles. I put a 1000 miles on it in the last 2 months. The only thing non original is the crappy repaint in factory code 29 (Midnight Blue) someone did a few years ago. Will this car qualify for HPOF with a repaint? I understand the rules and am wondering if the repaint just takes away all original status or is enough of the car original will it still gain that status? I think she will get HPOF status but was wondering about the original status issue. Thanks in advance for responses. I have seen the judging sheet in another post and as I stated before the only non original item is the paint.

Looking forward to this one.
