JIM & JANE DAVIE MEMORIAL TROPHY
ENTRY FORM
For the Best Owner-Restored Car on the Texas Tour
YEAR___________ MAKE___________ JUDGING CLASS___________ OWNER_________________________CAR NUMBER ____________
An owner-restored car is one that was largely restored by its current owner and not by a professional. For the car to be eligible for this award it must be at least 25 years old, the owner must have personally performed at least 2/3 (67%) of the restoration, and must not be a professional in automotive restoration work. (A professional is a workman who is compensated in some manner for doing a particular type or phase of automotive repair or restoration work.)
The owner shall assess the percentage of work personally performed in the restoration of each category listed below. (Omit categories that do not pertain to your car’s restoration.) The average of the categories involved shall be added to the score from the class judging. The highest combined total will determine which car is the best restored with the greatest amount of work performed by the owner.
NOTE: Machine work is beyond the capability of the majority of owner-restorers. So, for example, if the owner did ALL of the disassembly and reassembly of, say, the transmission or the engine (which also may have required professional restoration machine work) he may consider that he has done 100% of that category restoration.
