The top 25 got a plaque just like ours. As you can see from the plaque it was called a classic car show. yes there are now solid definitionof classic but most people agree 25 to 30 years old at least.
A 2018 Chevy Corvette with dealer plates is in no way shape of form a Classic way most of us see it. Yet one got a top 25 plaque, made many mad who said they would not return to the show again.

Our Buick looks so much better this year than last year. Lots of people stopped and said how nice it looked. OK I admit I really cleaned the windows good Friday, blacked the tires and scrubbed it in. Scrubbed under the hood real well but still have a bit to do. The easil story board left side has top car make model and year, where we live mail address. Bottom is a scan of the orginal window sticker. Right side is the Option 1, order sheet Inlaws both worked for AC spark plug, order form has all the options on the car cost, cost per and total cost of the car out the door price.

This 1966 Ford Mustang convertable was best in show. The engine compartment shined as good as the car did.

1962 Studabaker Champ 1/2 ton pick up, Owner told me that Dodge supplied the boxes for the truck and stuck out past the bodies. I researched it and he wasn't pulling my leg. Any way he narrowed the box so it was flush with the body.
It was also a top 25 plaque winter.

We run the Dodge City Classics car club and if our shows were limited to just 25-30 year old cars we wouldn't have much of a show. We also have a "Future Classics" "modern muscle" "Motor Cycle" class.

I got burned out on the typical "classic cars". Every show I went to had the same old same old. Currently I show my 2012 Mustang Shelby GT500 Sleeper Snake. Not only great at the show but does quite well at the track. By the VIN# I have 1 of 63 with the same options. It will be a future collector.
