GM Nationals @ Carlisle
<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">VINTAGE CERTIFICATION</span></span>

We are pleased to announce our continued commitment to the GM Nationals. Our judging program has participated at the GM Nationals since 1999, and we are excited about this June 24, 25 &amp;26 2011. Carlisle is an iconic venue, which has much to offer participants, spectators and embraces all GM Brands. It also affords our program the ability to judge and certify Camaros, Chevelles and Novas.
We are just now accepting applications for our program and if the first two cars is any indication it should be a great show. How about an ultra low mileage Survivor ZL1 Camaro for Vintage Legend Certification, which is being shown for the first time or a concours restored LS6 Chevelle for Vintage Elite Certification.

We have two distinct programs:

<span style="font-weight: bold">Vintage Legend </span>focuses on the unrestored Camaro, Chevelle and Nova. This program provides status, recognition, provenance and appreciation to unrestored vehicles. The certification team provides each owner with a detailed listing of our findings in a comprehensive report. Our goal is to uncover new information, share it with you and act as a repository for factory standards and processes.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Vintage Elite </span>focuses on the restored Camaro, Chevelle and Nova. This program encourages hobbyist and restorers to use factory processes, finishes and standards when restoring vehicles. Components, finishes and assemblies that deviate from factory standards will be noted as such in a comprehensive certification report.

Our certification teams consist of judges Brett Merryman, Steve Shauger, Chris White, Jeff Dotterer and Brian Henderson who collectively have over 125 years of experience as restorers, historians and collectors. Each team spends three hours examining each vehicle in the following areas; Engine Compartment, Underbody, Exterior, Interior and Trunk. Our standards are based on years of research data which we have collected through our Vintage Legend program, restorations, personal collections and GM documentation.

How do I proceed getting my Car Certified???

Simply email us [email protected] or contact Steve Shauger at 631-514-9765 and we will send you our Mission Statement/ Participation Guidelines. If after reviewing you feel your car meets our criteria, fill out the last page “Pre-Qualification Application” and email or mail it to the address/email provided at the bottom of the application.


Once we receive the application it will be reviewed. If your vehicle qualifies you will be notified and provided a Vintage entry number. The next step is to contact Carlisle via website at: http://www.carsatcarlisle.com/ce/eve...nals/index.asp or call 717-243-7855 and register your vehicle. Be sure to reference your Vintage Pre-Qualification entry number, because you will be unable to register your vehicle in this program without it.

The registration fee includes:

Two entry passes for the show
Pass for Trailer parking
Pass for car being judged.

If you have questions email us at [email protected] or contact Steve Shauger at 631-514-9765 / or Brett Merryman can be reached at 740-676-4920. Our programs are concours level, and thereby requires that your vehicle to be pre-qualified. Space is limited due to the amount of time required to verify and inspect all reference areas, so apply early. We look forward to seeing everyone at the GM Nationals, so stop by the Y building and say hello.

The cars below will be participating at <span style="font-weight: bold">GM Nationals @ Carlisle</span>. They will be displayed in the <span style="font-weight: bold">Solid Lifter Showroom</span> hosted by the Super Car Workshop. The Vintage Certification team will also be located in the SLS building, which is where the certification process will take place. Kudos to Brian H., Joe S. and Frank A. for assembling this stellar, rarest of the rare group of cars. Many of the cars have never been displayed in public, so stop by and enjoy this fantastic assemblage of GM muscle.

I look forward to seeing everyone and sharing the jewels of information we find during our certification process. If time allows we may certify a few others.

Steve, Can you tell us which one's have never been seen in public? Most of those cars I believe I have seen.

[Steve Shauger]

Here are a few...How about the #46 ZL1 with 16K miles or the just discovered Gobi Beige Yenko Deuce, the Baldwin Motion Chevelle, 67 L78 Chevelle or 68 Black L78 Chevelle. There are several others that have been tucked away as well.

Look forward to seeing you Jeff....

What about getting some of these cars to MCACN in November?

[69L78]

I doubt if you see me Steve, I will probably go to MD. The SLS you can see without going thru the gates and everyone knows there is nothing much there on Friday. Every time I go to a Carlisle event it is very evident on how greedy they are getting IMO. It was evident at Spring Carlisle when they put the brick wall up out at the fence by gate 7 near the car corral. Anyone who was there will know what I mean.
