1957Birdman Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Matt, I agree with you, I also would like to know how AACA handles obviously modified cars. There were two Continental Mark IIs on the show field, both that seemed to be modified. I wonder what the point deduction is for the ugly fins that were grafted onto the one Mark II?

But the other pictures? Woohoo! Acres and acres of gorgeous COLORS! Even the boring colored white, silver/gray and black cars had enough bright accents that the cars didn't look like a washing machine! Thanks Cutlasguy for posting! Man. These pictures and Sebastien's pictures from the French shows are enough to give one sensory overload.🤯 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Yes, thank you! Nice mix of cars in your photos. Looking at some of them I think wow, I should have bought one of them when they were a common car and a lot less money. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm recalling correctly, a company executive or some other influential person had it done at the time. Actually, it looked quite tasteful in person, and was in the HPOF (original features) class.

John_S_in_Penna Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Thanks, Cutlass Guy, for the pictures. I always appreciate your photographic reporting of shows.

We have this problem at our annual Father's Day show and it never goes well. Hi Matt, There was also a Black Gran Sport next to me that I have seen numerous times at AACA Meets that had headers, aftermarket Valve covers clearly marked with the TA logo( a well known aftermarket Buick racing manufacturer), etc. My guess is that sometimes the judges aren't up or knowledgeable about certain cars and things slip by. Last I saw the Black Gran Sport at a few meets it hadn't won a First Junior. This year a photo shows the First Junior grill badge on the car. It slipped by somewhere and he achieved what he was obviously aiming for. It is a beautiful car, but obviously modified. Maybe there weren't enough deductions this time so he got a First Junior Award? P.S. Just saw he well the car won a Senior Award at Hershey.

greenie Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 With my youngest son working on his Doctorate in Chemical Engineering at Purdue, he was not able to join me at Hershey. So I thought I’d send him a picture of this stunning Auburn, built not that very far from West Lafayette, IN. It wasn’t until today that I realized I captured it in the process of being judged- and look who was hard at work judging the class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Nice when kids are allowed to sit in a vehicle on the show field, even better if they get a foldup build op sheet of it to remember the event. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
