How perfect do our cars have to be to get the required 8?
I would very much like to enter but my car is light years away from Marks. But I would like to add to the list.

Depends if you enter the Preservation or Restored class.
Preservation is more for the driven cars than the garage queens as far as I know.

The first rule before you start any competition is...know the rules.

Here's the judging criteria as listed on the Application for Entry:

JUDGING POLICIES: The intention of CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA CONCOURS ON THE AVENUE is to exhibit the authenticity, originality and preservation of each marque. Judging will be focused on that authenticity, originality and preservation.

1. The owner or officially accepted presenter must accompany the entry during judging.

2. The categories of evaluation are Exterior, Interior and Engine/Chassis. Only factory options or dealer-installed options (with documentation) will be considered as original.

3. The Chief Class Judge will be responsible for Introductions, Final Class Decisions and the submission of Results.

4. Each entry commences with a perfect score of 100 points. The same judge(s) will evaluate all entries in a given class.
Deductions of 0-5 points will be made as deemed appropriate by the judge(s). First Place requires 95 points or above, andSecond Place requires 90 points or above. Only First In Class winners will be eligible for the Best Of Show Award. Judged entries are eligible for Major and Class Awards. Display entries are eligible for Major Awards except the Best Of Show Award.

5. Each entry is required to be fully operational and fully assembled. All parts (i.e. tops, bumpers, wheels, etc.) are to be attached in the original position. Judges will not handle or operate the entry. Judges may sit inside the entry for interior evaluation.
The demonstration of equipment and component functions (windows, lights, radios, air conditioning, etc.) will be done by the owner/presenter.

6. Proper instrument evaluation will be judged while the engine is idling. Any malfunction may be corrected by the owner/presenter within fifteen minutes of judging completion.

7. Convertibles will be judged with the top up and secured. Removable roof panels must be in place. Any original tools, manuals and pouches (including authorized reprints) should be available.

8. Modifications required by Federal Law and safety items (seat belts, mirrors, exhaust, etc.) are acceptable if they do not detract from the original appearance of the entry.

9. Replacement components such as tires, spark plugs, battery, etc. must conformto the original profile. Tires must be fitted to the original rims. The spare tire must match unless it is an original special item.

10. Confirming documentation should be provided for any entry with unique or extraordinary characteristics.

I would point out that Article 4 draws a distinction between "Judged" and "Displayed" entries.

How about the exhaust tips?

Few years ago I was helping prep three Corvette's (all restored by a friend of mine). At the last minute the owner of the 57 we expected to win noticed the black inside the exhaust tips and cleaned them out.

The judges did not like that, took off points for being a trailer queen (or whatever the spot on the score card was called) and he came in 2nd to the 63 we brought.

Great idea- thank you! I'm part of Team Tyson from Texas. I hope to get Roger's Club Sport SE in my garage this weekend.Click the image to open in full size.
Great to know you are now on my team - always wanted a bot in the group. By the way all of us have to pay a $2500 entry fee to join the Tyson team - when can I get your money please - we take PayPal or CC - MasterCard & Visa preferred.

See you on the 7th July
