2016 MCACN "Day2 Invitational" Showcase

I am very pleased and excited to be asked to assist in assembling the 2016 MCACN "Day2 Invitational" Showcase.

This is a unique showcase featuring these special cars that are either authentic significant cars before they were "Day 2'd" in Original Unrestored condition or Restored to "Day2" condition. This will include both Dealer Supercars from Nickey, Mr. Norm’s and Yenko etc. and period correct owner personalized cars from “back in the day.”

Anyone interested in entering this Special Showcase please contact me.....abodymuscle@aol.com

We already have a roster of cars entered. I will post the owners names and the cars shortly.

Note*
Concours Day 2 Judged Vehicles: Vehicles are judged on a 1,000 point scale with no deductions taken for period correct accessories and modifications, including era correct drive-train and wheel and/or tire swaps. Note; deviations from stock must be deemed “period correct.” This is not a class for clones or tributes. VIN must match car being presented. The modifications you will see on these cars are authentic to the day, within two years of the production year of the car with owner modified cars that were done "back in the day" using all period correct parts and modifications.

Stay Tuned

Dan

Just don't stick an Oldsmobile in the corner they put me in. Save that for a Ford or Chevy or something....

You can't wait until the last minute to register for this event. There are numerous vehicles / displays already signed up and committed to the show. The show is usually filled months prior with a long waiting list.

Would this be considered a day 2 car?

Completely confused; please clarify: is it for dealer conversions or 1 owner cars?

My understanding is Dan is gathering DAY-2 cars, either modified by the dealer back in the day, or by the owner back in the day or modified by the owner recently with vintage DAY-2 parts.


Correct me if I am wrong:-)

We are really excited about this special display. If you have been to MCACN before, you know these displays are always a lot of fun and we draw some pretty spectacular cars!

We appreciate the continued support!

Eric;

We appreciate your participation, as you have a gorgeous 442.

As stated earlier in another post, we indeed sell out well in advance and your entry was received in late August when were were darn near completely full/sold out. Your car was originally a regular entry, not one of the invited special display cars, but when I reviewed the pics and saw it is indeed a real W-30, I added it to the Class of '70 Invitational area, as it would have been in one of the back halls otherwise.

Point for everyone is....please enter promptly, as I assign spots as we receive the official entries, and in most cases, all of the special displays and most of the show is full well in advance.

Thanks;

This is basically correct; this special display is for real muscle cars, (no clones/tributes) that were modified, either by the owner or one of the performance oriented dealers like Yenko, Royal or Nickey etc "back in the day" only.

We always welcome and encourage original owners for all area's of the show.

Thanks;

I don't have a problem with it. I just didn't understand much when I was signing up. Never been to a show like that before much less show a car at one. Had I known what I was doing I would have only entered it in the for sale section. Incredible show and I would love to take the 62 Jetfire 4 speed car for the hidden gems section but the funds just not likely to be there for it this year. I still have not even cleaned it just in case something changes.
