There are 3 attachments which include a Map with the preferred driving route, a outline with registration information and a list of cars that have registered.
The concours Team looks forward to the event and please feel free to contact me with questions.

SAAC-46 / Re: Up date on trophies
« on: September 24, 2021, 06:39:08 PM »
All the trophies are in the mail, let me know if there are any delivery problems, they are made of glass and are insured.
Let me know if you like the design and we are all looking forward to next year.
I believe the wait for the personalized trophies will be well worth the wait.

Concours Talk / Re: How to find an old judging sheet
« on: September 21, 2021, 11:50:39 AM »
I went back and looked again in the 2006 SAAC 31 files and found car 04147 was entered by Nick Smith of Toronto Canada, this car received a Silver award, thanks Rodney for your recall. I recall that Legendary was proud of their restoration but we determined the car was not quite up to SAAC's standards of that time period.
Stephen if you would like a copy send me a private message with your email and I will send it to you as a pdf.

Concours Talk / Re: How to find an old judging sheet
« on: September 19, 2021, 03:08:43 PM »
I looked thru the files for 2003-2007 and did not find any judging sheets for this car, could the time frame be different?
Bob is also correct the judging sheets during this period were only 5 pages and now there are a many as 20 pages so being a help to up date the car to todays standards they will not be of much help.
If you have more information for me to zero in on the time frame or convention number I'll be glad to look again.

I have several boxes with the past records for previous Concours conventions, they are not well organized so I don't know if I have what you are looking for. Give me a couple of days to dig into them and if I have the judging sheets we can make arrangements for you to get a copy.

SAAC-46 / Up date on trophies
« on: September 15, 2021, 12:32:55 PM »
I contacted the trophy company this morning for an update: their response was the order should be shipping next week of sooner.
I want to give you an idea what the process is and why it seems takes so long.
First question was who was going to handle the trophies SAAC or the Concours chairman, then the type of trophy needed to be picked out which lead to developing art work for that format, then it gets sent to the trophy company for their art department to finalize the art work then it gets sent back to me for review and approval. After SAAC approval the order is sent to production, at this point it takes about 2-3 weeks before delivery. Once I receive the trophies they get repackaged and send to each of the winners.
I want to thank everyone for their patience and it's an honor work with everyone

Misc. For Sale / Looking for long lead technical conference press kit
« on: July 22, 2021, 03:43:06 PM »
Looking for a good copy of the first press release of the 1968 Shelby, there were 2 press releases.
It was produced for the Long Lead Technical Conference.
Like the second press release there were several photos and specification sheets included
A copy from an original press kit works for my needs.

SAAC-46 / Judging and parking areas
« on: July 22, 2021, 12:41:43 PM »
We will start judging a couple of cars on Friday, we also plan on having a short meeting on Saturday with Judges and owners. This meeting will probably be in area 8 under a tent we hope.
Instructions form the track:
If you need to unload before 6p or so on Thurs, please unload in Lot 3. If you arrive after 6p, you should be able to unload in a fire lane behind Area 8 and then park your tow rig and enclosed trailer in your paddock space in Area 5 or on the other side of Area 8. We do ask that flat trailers be parked up in Lot 2 .
