We had the 6cyl Hugger Orange 1970 Nova at the Rhinebeck spring car show a number of years ago. When the judges came by to 'look her over' one of them asked me who painted the car?? I told him Chevrolet...he said he meant to ask "who repainted it?" I tried to explain it was not repainted and was original factory lacquer paint.

After some back and forth one of the 'gentlemen' finally figured it out and they went on their way. They ended up giving me an award just as I was ready to go home.

My sense is they were judging more on cosmetics and less on originality...that was my last visit to their show field.
