I don't usually get involved in any aspect of the Judging but I do have a few thoughts about Joe's ZL-1 and car show judging in general;

1. This is without a doubt one of the nicest restorations I have ever witnessed in person.
2. The judging sheets for this car are now being reviewed by my Judging supervisor, as there are several issues that may have been considered incorrect that may in fact be correct.
3. The "Non" Corvette entries and the levels of cars being entered in Chevy Vettefest have never been better, and I am interested in finding more recognized authorities who are qualified to properly judge these vehicles.
4. I am the first to admit that we need to improve the judging at Chevy Vettefest and it is my intent to do exactly that.
5. Nothing is ever "cut and dry" when it comes to judging any car, whether it be a Corvette or a Supercar at Chevy Vettefest or any other show.
6. It is absolutely 100% mandatory that any Chevy Vettefest judge be unbiased. If I find any proof that this is not the case, any person involved will be banned from our shows.

As stated, in my "humble opinion" this ZL1 is unquestionably one of the finest in the country, bar none.

thank you for the interest in #36. i appreciate all of the attention it recieved at vette-fest and here on the site. your feedback has been most helpful. the items mentioned here, as well as several not mentioned, have been corrected. i took the car to VF to get exposure, and i am pleased with how much it received. i will attempt to post photos of the items corrected for those who are interrested or have commented on the issues with this car. these will be posted later today or this weekend.
