Vintage Certification @ MCACN 2023
Vintage Certification™ is again proud and excited to be a part of the MCACN experience, hard to believe it's our 14th year at this show and 24th anniversary of Vintage Certification program. By now everyone should know this is a must attend event. Come Join Us and have your car Vintage Certified at MCACN Nov 18th & 19th in Chicago
Vintage Certification™ is a judging program whose sole purpose is to recognize, provide status, provenance, and promote un-restored (survivor) vehicles. We believe it is the only program that focuses on documenting and benchmarking these cars. Our core certification team consists of Brett Merryman, Paul Martin, Lloyd Costley, Steve Minore, Chris White, Scott Tiemann, Frank Badalson, Marty Burke, Jason Billups, John Ballard, Jeff Cook, Steve Shauger and other marque specialists based on make and model. Each core team member possesses over 30 years' experience as restorers, collectors, historians and judges in the hobby. Typically, we spend 3hrs examining in detail every segment of your car including the underbody on a lift. To learn more about Vintage Certification visit our website at www.vintagecertification.com or the MCACN website at www.mcacn.com. This is the perfect venue to have your vehicle certified. You will be among and exclusive group of enthusiasts who participate in this exciting event. We understand not every original car is 100% untouched, and we offer five levels of certification, based on the originality of the Vehicle. Vintage Certifications™ five divisions: Vintage Time Capsule - Vehicles that are 95+% unrestored in all reference areas Vintage Legend - Vehicles that are 85+% unrestored in all reference areas. Vintage Heritage - Vehicles that are 85+% unrestored in five reference areas. Vintage Legacy - Vehicles that are 85+% unrestored in four reference areas Vintage Reference - Vehicles that are 85+% unrestored in three reference area. Reference Areas: Certification consists of two areas of consideration, Originality and Preservation. Reference areas are as follows: • Engine Compartment Area • Exterior Body • Interior Body • Underbody • Trunk (except Corvette) We are now accepting applications for 2023. We have limited certification slots available and suggest you apply early before they are filled. If you are interested or have questions call or visit our website at: www.vintagecertification.com for more info such as, rules and guidelines and downloadable application. I will update this post with the current 2023 roster shortly. 2022 participants were amazing, as pictured below. Each were dedicated to preserving their vehicle and its history.

Vintage Certification 2022 Pics
I will be posting a few pics of each participating car fro MCACN 2022. These are not glamour shots because most of the time we are documenting components #'s date, plating/finishes and small specific areas. That being said these are some larger overall pics. Special thanks to Lloyd Costley for painstakingly photographing each car. This is no easy task because there are 5-6 teams of judges certifying each area of the 6 areas. Then trying to focus on what phase of the certification of the 15 cars is in well to say it's a monumental task is an understatement. Kudos and thanks to Lloyd for a fantastic job!!!
65 Shelby Original owner passed and was passed on to his son. The great thing is the son shared fond memories of how he and his father always cared for the car together. 1965 Shelby Original family 43K Charles McArty Awarded Reference

That's awesome, Steve. Is that the Shelby that the gentleman wouldn't let anyone either sit in the seat or remove/open something since his dad was the only one to ever do it? Sounds bad, but it wasn't. It was a touching testament to his father

We were honored to have this car go through Vintage certification in Chicago with Steve and the awesome judging team. We look forward to having it judged by the Vintage certification team in Morgantown at the Camaro nationals. We plan to be there Thursday through Saturday for the show.
