Who is doing the judging reason i ask is because my brother in law has a 1998 Saleen Explorer that is in showroom condition....add ons are carbon fiber hood from Saleen.....Recaros.....carbon fiber trim.....roots type S/C.....and painted calipers.....

We entered a ford show at E-town and they put him in a class with a riced out expedition that had a FUGLY paint job and a $10,000 sound system with fur as interior and like 22 inch rims.....they gave this goof the 1st prize trophy
Which to me was a slap in the face if you owned a ford.

He belonged in a complete different class.

So how are you setting up the trucks????


What show was that at? I think I know the Expedition. While not the nicest looking one, the guy put in lots of work and the finish was top quality but laking taste.

Anyway, the contest is judged by club members. I'm not sure who is doing it this year, but usually it's a range of 'new to judging' to very experienced judges. I'd imagine it would be the same this year. They go buy a list of things to look for such as cleanliness, body condition, interior, etc.

The problem with classes is that not enough non-mustang and non-lightings show. So you have things like Foci and Contours combined in 1 class because there will be a total of less then 10 (ie last year we had 5). Or Expeditions and Explorers are grouped together, sometimes with F150's/F250's.

This year it looks like a lot more people are planning to come out and we have been promoting big time. So hopefully it will better. The more different vehicles that show the better the classes can be split up and the better the winners can be chosen.

Also, if the Saleen club shows as they said they would, your cousins Explorer might go into that class then.



Just come out and have fun.
