Concours 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be Skip on  Mon Dec 30 02:42 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Here's a question for anyone involved in restoring and showing Volvos, particularly anyone who has actually judged any events. I just picked up an extraordinary '83 242 Flathood that is too nice to turn into a daily driver. My plan is to sharpen it up and show it at VCOA meets. (my wife says I need a hobby that doesn't involve fields of grass, long stick and small white balls) I've done this before with a modified '80 242 and had a lot of fun. My question is this; How do judges view legitimate Volvo accessories on a "stock" class car? Over the years I have collected a number of rare accessories (R Sport steering wheel, oil temp gauge, etc). If you were judging a car, how would you view these "accessories" on a stock class car? I would especially appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually judged a car show. Thanks
