Lots more classes now- I remember when I had my '71 in the concours at the '76 Parade in MN. It was really clean but I'd done a lot of little "improvements" and they killed me on originality... had things like euro lenses, no warts, etc. and different wheels.
I saw your car and it really looked nice but the painted wheels, Monza exhaust etc would have killed back then. I heard they DQ'ed the adriatic blue 914-6 because of non-original stuff - wheels, seats etc. He must have been in the wrong class. We took our '97 turquoise 993 but ended up not putting it in the concours because it has non-original wheels, seats etc. Also the 99%humidity and heat on Sunday didn't make cleaning sound that inviting. When I saw the turnout, I wish we had entered. We could have won something! |

We would get killed if we were judge for original. My understanding is as long as the changes you make are Porsche then you won't get docked any points. So our paint is Porsche it's just not original to the 914 and so on... |
