A special note to our 2012 Exhibitors: This year, each exhibitor will receive two complimentary VIP tickets to the Barrington Concours d'Elegance for you and your spouse. You will also have the option of purchasing gala tickets separately for $75 per person if you wish to stay for the evening gala, which will be held Sunday evening following the Awards Ceremony.

JUDGING

Wel use modified French rules for judging exhibits. Judges will look for cleanliness, fit and finish, level of restoration, paint choices for components, interior condition, and finally the presenter’s attempt to preserve the vehicle’s “period correctness.” Exhibitors are encouraged to wear period clothing to enhance their show display (there will also be an award for best period clothing!).
Exhibit requirements include:

  1. The exhibit must have been manufactured in 1973 or earlier.
  2. The exhibit cannot have been shown at the Barrington Concours in 2011, 2010, or 2009.
  3. The exhibit must be driven onto the showfield to demonstrate “working” condition (tractors excluded).
  4. Original vehicles and “backgarden” varieties are highly desired.
