Judging Independent Body Styles
How will we (or how are we) currently judging a 1928-1931 Model A/AA Ford with an Independent Body Style that is NOT (and which are not to my knowledge) currently specified in the MARC/MAFCA Restoration Guidelines and Judging Standards?
Will those vehicles be treated like all other vehicles in receiving full points or less points since some of the features are not covered within said publication? Thanks. Pluck |

Re: Judging Independent Body Styles
Pluck, The only RGJS information I find is page 8 (revised 2011).
"Vehicles which were produced by Ford with only a cowlThis statement does not reference a cab and chassis unit. But, it seems there is an unwritten rule that a cab and chassis must have an outside supplied cargo body to be judged or points are deducted. There is a list of "A" chassis body types but no body type identification information. The E supplement (Heavy Commercial Vehicles) has eleven pages of AA body types identification. I don't see any way for a judge to be able to judge a outside supplier body or even to know the difference between an era supplier or a home made body. There must be some unwritten rules regarding this procedure since non-Ford supplied bodies are being judged at national meets.

I will tell you that in a situation where the item is not required, then full points are awarded (-no deductions given). I made the comment once that since the Stds say it is how the vehicle left the factory, then I wanted to show a stand-drive milk truck chassis just as it left to go to the body builder. Since it would not have a body, rear fenders, upholstery, top, windows/curtains, etc., it could score very well. I since think the verbiage has been changed that all vehicles must have a body to be eligible to compete. |
