So this one did die but was brought back from the dead hence the salvage title.
So does it make it a zombie? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Bloomington Gold Definition: Is over 20 years old. Can pass a road test over 10 miles Remains over 50% unrestored, un-refinished, or unaltered. (Fails here) Retains finishes good enough to use as a color guide for restoration of a car just like it. AACA judging guidelines regarding HPOF: A vehicle may be entirely ‘original’ or it may have certain original features such as paint, chassis, upholstery, engine compartment, etc. that are essentially as delivered. (Fails pretty much all of this) The one common consensus from almost every classic / antique judging I can find: "The first rule of survivor cars is their original paint job. You cannot paint a collector car and still call it a survivor anymore than you can castrate a horse and still call it a stallion. Something is fundamentally different in both cases, although the horse has better reasons to be a lot sadder about the changes in his life. The paint job has to be the original finish, complete with orange peel and a thin layer of actual paint in many cases from the factories of the past. The car will be measured by its ability to have survived decades with nothing more than a wax job on its paint surface." This car is not a survivor - End of story |
