<VV> Trailered cars

[Dennis & Debbie PLEAU]

It could be done, I hope most CORSA members have better ethics than that.  I 
got approached when I was Concours chair in Albuquerque by a person who 
trailered his car about 250 miles, unloaded it at his brother-in-laws in 
town and then drove it to the convention.  He asked if he was driven or 
trailered, noting that the locals in Albuquerque drove about the same number 
of miles.  I told him, I thought he was trailered, but if he decided to 
enter as non trailered car, I wouldn't say anything.  He made in my opinion 
the right decision and indicated on his concours registration form that he 
trailered the car.
