Some have asked what the 3 point deduction was for:

1) Dust on the right frame rail
2) repro red line tires??
3) scratches on the rear glass (original)

We are very pleased with the results. Don

Oh please....dust on the frame rail? And scratches on the glass...

It's an awesome car...I know where the judges can stick the 3 points...

What about the boogers I found under the dash?
No way to tell if they were factory original survivors or added by one of the previous owners.
How many points off for that, and will NOS be OK?
Fantastic work! You must have had some help from the Overhaulin' guys to make that show.

You guys have to realize there is NO perfect scored car...they HAVE to find something to knock a few off...they did the same to my 62 Belair, dust and a scratch on the frame..even though there were things they could have gotten legitimately...they are just judges...but my 62 did score 998 heh heh heh..one time only...same car kept going down each time thereafter by a point...

I know you were playing Bruce...they are serious about the dust though...its the last thing they can come up with....The guys at NOS must have forgotten to use a magnifying glass to search for dust particles
