This testing identified several changes to the Manual text, although relatively minor, that the Judging Committee determined would improve clarity of the instructions provided. Those have been incorporated throughout where needed. The current Judging Committee includes: Paul E. Ayres Jim Eccleston Ronnie Hux Richard Sills Fred Butalla III Jeffrey S. Hansen Lars Kneller Phil Terry Tim Coy is responsible for the design and layout of this Third Edition. Preface to the Second Edition The first judged Cadillac & LaSalle Club (CLC) Grand National (GN) Meet was held in 1985 using procedures devised by CLC National Chief Judge Carl L. Steig based on his experience as a judge in the Classic Car Club of America. In 1996, a judging system using 40 different categories to evaluate cars was implemented. That system was used from then until 2016. To improve judging quality and consistency, the first edition of the CLC Judging Manual was developed in 2004–2005 and published in 2005. Except for minor changes, that Manual was used from then until 2016. After William C. “Bill” Anderson, P.E., succeeded Carl L. Steig as CLC National Chief Judge, the CLC Judging Committee performed a comprehensive assessment of the CLC car judging program and identified many areas needing improvement. The results of the Committee’s assessment and recommendations were presented to the CLC Board of Directors at its January 2015 meeting. The Board approved the Committee’s recommendations at that meeting. In the last two years, the Judging Committee has developed the information and procedures contained in this Manual. The goal of these new procedures is to improve the accuracy and quality of judging and the fairness to the entrants. Quality judging will enhance the market value of the CLC awards and that of the cars receiv- ing awards. The Judging Committee included: Paul E. Ayres Jim Eccleston Jack Hotz Lars Kneller Fred Butalla III Jeffrey S. Hansen Ronnie Hux Richard Sills Jeffrey S. Hansen is responsible for the development and maintenance of the necessary software to register cars and automate the scoring of judging sheets. He also developed a system to automate the maintenance of the CLC Judging Recognition Program. Tim Coy designed some of the forms employed in the Judging Program and produced the design and layout of this Manual. Toni Nabholz Huse, assisted by George Huse, and Phil Terry produced and narrated the 2017 CLC Judging Video used for training judges. William C. “Bill” Anderson, P.E. National Chief Judge Cadillac & LaSalle Club 2018 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Judging Manual vii viii 2018 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Judging Manual INTRODUCTION The Cadillac & LaSalle Club, Inc. (CLC) was organized to: • Develop, publish and exchange information pertaining to Cadillacs and LaSalles; • Encourage the maintenance, preservation, and restoration of Cadillacs and LaSalles; • Maintain reference materials and other information pertaining to Cadillacs and LaSalles; and • Promote social fellowship among the Club Members. Judging of cars at a CLC Grand National Meet or other authorized event is undertaken to further these objectives. Judging involves many parties—the entrants who provide the cars, the judges who judge them, the event host who provides the facility and local logistics, and the judging administration team that tabulates the scores of each car. Mutual courtesy and respect between all are expected. This Manual describes the responsibilities of each. 2018 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Judging Manual 1 2 2018 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Judging Manual CHAPTER 1 Judging Program Purpose Judging and members of the Judging Committee, and members The primary purpose of the CLC Judging Award Disclaimer of a Judging Administration Program is to educate owners and The Cadillac & LaSalle Club does not Committee, all who will serve at the members regarding the exact condition certify or in any other way attest to the pleasure of the Chief Judge.” and configuration of the various models originality or authenticity of any car of Cadillacs and LaSalles as they were receiving a CLC judging award.
