Yes

I remember that

He tried numerous times to get me out west and down to Florida for that

Dog and pony show as well

Couldn’t bring myself to be around that crowd of wannabe with the bottle blondes on their arms and the tacky ascots and the like.

To each their own

It’s the same with the guys who have deep pockets buying historical WW2 fighters

Only there they kill themselves 

Aviation is self cleansing !

It always floored me Ted was asked to be a judge. He didn’t know or give a shit about correct or original. It was only about what he could make money on. He was a player in the market though he was only interested in the cash flow. He told me himself.

I once judged at a national meet

When Ted was alive he wanted me to become a judge

I couldn’t judge cars that were not driven

I became a concours judge after doing all the research on cars we restored and assembling a documentary binder for the car 

only to have the “judges” take points off for correct stuff. I am assembling a massive collection of factory documents by model to support and help educate the new generation of judges as the older crew is slowly fading away.

Hey GP – the old adage “if you have too many friends – become a concours judge.”

It’s true today as it was the first Concourse and dog show ever was.

Onward

I prefer the "Who's Line Is It Anyway?" brand of concours - where the points don't matter!  😉

I heard that in some concourses now, if 2 cars are both beautifully
original and hard to split on points, original tyres can make a
difference.  Apparently, there is some trade in really old tyres (date
matched to the vintage of the car) and matching the original specs.  I
guess you could trailer the car to the show site and ease off gently,
hoping the air stays in those tyres for the day!  Anybody else heard this?
