Does the DB Club “judge” cars at meets?
The Dodge Brothers Club welcomes cars and trucks in all levels of restoration or repair. We do not “judge” vehicles brought to our annual meets or any other function. Our object is to have fun with these vehicles. We have enjoyed “concours quality” restorations along with “barn fresh” originals side by side at our meets. You can see brush-painted home-made trucks and Hershey First Seniors, neither of which is judged or compared. We have had unrestored projects brought to our meets on trailers as well complete restorations driven thousands of miles. Many awards at our annual meets are in the category of “people’s choice.” We usually allow attendees to vote in several categories: four-cylinder, six cylinder, 1920s, 1930s, etc. We also award the oldest car, the newest car, the longest distance driven, longest distance trailered, the oldest driver, youngest driver, etc. None of these awards is based on authenticity or quality of restoration.
