THE SURVIVOR CHALLENGE
THE NEW ENGLAND MG T REGISTER ANNOUNCES THE SURVIVOR CHALLENGE
Every year the quality of restorations on the NEW ENGLAND MG "T"
REGISTER Member cars have gotten better and better. Register Members have
achieved a level of perfection with restorations that would be the envy of
any car group, anywhere.
Enthusiasts have come to expect very well-restored T-Series & Pre-War
MGs at GOFs, and they have not been disappointed. The bar has been set
high, and this standard has consistently met or exceeded that benchmark of
quality restoration, year after year.
Now, The New England MG "T" Register is pleased to announce "THE
SURVIVOR CHALLENGE." This is a competition to find the most original,
untouched, as-it-left-the-factory T-Type in the world. Any replaced parts,
alterations, repairs, or bodywork to the car would make that car less of a
contender. Ideally, the car will have the original engine, chassis, and
body, and as much documentation as possible. Extra consideration will be
given for documentation such as warranty cards, dealer paperwork, original
owner's handbooks, tools, tires, etc.
This competition will be kicked off with the Pre-War/TC competition at
the Fall 2012 GOF in New Jersey. The TD competition will be at the
following Spring 2013 GOF, and the TF competition will be at the Fall 2013
GOF. The final competition for "the best of the best" will conclude at the
Spring 2014 GOF which will coincide with the grand 50th Anniversary
celebration of the formation of The New England MG "T" Register.
All Register Members are welcome to participate in this competition.
Judging will be by popular choice, and all registered GOF participants will
be eligible to vote.
We know the cars are out there. We all know somebody who knows somebody
who has an all original car; a car that, for whatever reason, was either
parked early in its life, or was very well-maintained and still has the
original paint, the original interior, the original top, and often, even the
original tires.
So, the challenge is on! Please help The Register look for that rare
"barn find," dust off that car, and bring it to the competition. Spread
the word--The Register is looking for "The World's Best Survivor!"
