Default Judging items

Need an expert judging opinion here

When you have a 69 camaro judged, what is the ruling on reproduction wiring harness.....

Is that a hit on the points or.... considered acceptable and NO point deduction?

Default Spark Plug Wires

You can get repro wires, with the correct info on the wires. No problem, no deduction. How many cars have the orginal wires, Yet! We see it all the time. BBBenny

If some judges take 1 point off for repro tires,I imagine the ones that can spot a repro harness will also.
It's a small price to pay for either of them though,to be able to drive safe & sound.

In the legend judging they give points for certain areas if you have reproduced parts you won't get all of your originality points

Reproduction wiring harnesses are nearly a must.... with my experience in the past I have never had a deduction in points because of reproduction harnesses ... my main reason is safety and I do not want to burn an expensive car with restoration down to the ground.

If you have the orginal wires. Bring them along. You will get points for orginal parts, still with the car. BBBenny
