Barney Eaton Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 In the last month, there have been post for special Buicks, the 1930 12 passanger bus and the 1938 Flxible Hearse are the most recent.Don't forget the BCA has created a new judging class for these vehicles and everyone hopes more will appear at national meets. These are special Buicks modified for commercial use and I hope to see quite a few at Charlotte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Just a question-How would a car like a 1933 Buick Model 90 , 7 Passenger Sedan be judged ? Is there a standard to go by.Always wondered that. ThanksSandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Sandy,I, for one, am a bit confused about your question. The "standard" is the BCA judging manual, which is available on this BCA site, or hard copy rom the ofice. The car would be BCA judged to how close it is to a 1933 Buick would have been in a dealership show room when new, using a system of deductions from 400 point total as a "perfect" example. As, we all know, when restored some of them end up "better than new".some even "overrestored", and some with "special" touches, which can lead to point deductions. If it is unrestored original, there is separte judging category. I hope this helps, but it might be good to expand the question if you want specifics.

Guest outlaw car man Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Thanks-I've never had any car judged, I thought it was a deal where something is compared to a Gold Standard. Probably a dumb question - Was just thinking. Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Sandy,As said before on this forum, there are no "dumb" questions. Were you able to find an answer in the judging manual? If not, ask away.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
