World certified?, I am just thinking...... Options

How about world certified to acknowledge the intensity of the work and craftsmanship we put on there teeners.

I would say Admin would have to create a page for certified teeners. There would be some minimum requirements (i,e if someone uses fiberglass repair or bondo to repair the hell hole, you are not qualify) and a link to the restoration, conversion or other work performed that can simply be pulled with the certification number provided. it would not guarantee anything, but the world members would feel more comfortable buying the car.

A decal can be made at a small cost and attach to the car, this way if someone comes across that car at a barn 20 years from now, they can identify it and see what was done.

I know that there is a way to search by the VIN, but this will encourage members to post and add a little pride to our accomplishment.

Ok, I take back my comments. This isn't like buying a used car, this is about recognizing how much work one has been put into an automobile.

It would be very interesting to sit down and come up with a set of guidelines for certification - one that keeps personal bias out of the equation. For example, whether you like body kit conversions or not, some of them are done very nicely. Do you give the well- done cars a sticker knowing that a large majority of the 914 crowd doesn't care for most body kits? Do V8 and Subby conversions get stickers even though it's sacrilege to some purists? Fiberglass vs. Steel flares?

Like I said, would be an interesting car show discussion, or Internet debate. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
