CPotD #115 (It's a Concours Of Course)


Tuesday was concours day at the CORSA convention and Scott Trunkhill and his camera were there. A concours is a judged event where each competing car starts out with a perfect score (100 pts for CORSA) and points are deducted from there for each deviation from perfection. Today’s CPotD depicts the action that takes place at one of these events showing three judges and their tools of the trade – clipboard, scoresheet, pen, and something to cushion them while they inspect undersides. Each judge is responsible for a certain section of the vehicle (engine, interior, underside, etc.)

Unless I someday happen upon a great deal on a near-perfection Corvair, I can’t imagine ever putting enough work into one of these vehicles to enter a concours.
