-------Somebody must have block-sanded that A-frame for a week. I have never seen an A-frame done to that degree. If I had one like that I wouldnt put it on a car, Id hang it up on the living-room wall and stare at it all night!!!!........Bill S

I'm guessing they had to grind off the threads that were sticking out past the nuts in order to not groove the rotors.

Wow... I wonder how the car scored?? Did the car compete for a spinner??

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.
