What Do Judges Look For In a Classic Car Show?

Knowing what the judges are looking for before entering your car into a classic car show greatly increases your chances of placing. In addition to the specific criterion that has been made clear for your category, there are some additional measures you can take and should take to ensure your vehicle winds up in the winner’s circle.

Clean Car

A spotless car is always a must; regardless of the category your car has been entered.  No dirt or mud should be visible on the outside and not a speck of dust on the inside.

No Scratches

Touch up any scratches and nicks before even considering entering a car show. A single scratch will distract a judge from the rest of your show car.

Custom Paint

Custom paint will set your car apart from the all the other cars that have been painted to match the original color. Paint it whatever color you like, as long as it is custom and original.

New Tires

Tires are one thing most show car owners do not consider when entering their car.  Tires should have minimum wear and should be just as spotless as the rest of the car.
