1.2 How to use this document during the restoration and judging process

The judging process at MVPA events has not been very consistent during the history of the association. It has been difficult to strike a balance between the needs of the “purist” restorers and members who wish to use their vehicles for recreational purposes. In an attempt to strike a balance, the MVPA has sponsored two classes of judging. The Combat Class or Motor Pool Ready Class provides a an opportunity for recreational collectors to display their vehicles and to discuss their work with judges who may be able to provide input into questions of safety and authenticity. This document will not be used as the basis for judging the Motor Pool Ready class. The Factory Class exists so that members who are intent on restoring their vehicles to as delivered condition will have the opportunity to have their vehicles judged against any such standard that may exist. In the case of the GPW, this document is that standard.

Vehicles are judged against the standard, not against each other. This means that if no vehicle is entered which obtains a minimum number of points when judged against this standard, then no awards will be granted.
