There are always a lot of dang near perfect 80s Carreras. In Michigan at the Parade there was guy from Canada that had a near clone of my car. It only had 25,000 miles and was bought new by the guy's dad. It was likely in better shape than most cars when new. He had parts of the suspension replated, the insides of the fenders were just pristine. It was obvious it had not been driven in the rain. He came in second in class. I can appreciate a super clean concours car, but I just feel like it is a waste. Get in it and drive it like it was meant to be driven.
One of the Tulsa area regional members has a Carrera GT. He actually drives it. At one of the parades he entered the concours. He checked the roster, his was the only one. He had a lock on first place. He dusted it off, and said, I am done cleaning. There are usually 20 cars in my class for the concours. I don't have a chance.
