Model A restorers club of U.S.does have a deduction of a few points for a
over restored car,but rarely use it, what they have now done is added a
driving class for a nicely restored car that is driven and not trailered.
Andy what I would like to see is maybe a 10 point bonus for a driven car,
and I think you can tell the difference between the two, even though some
trailered car owners may claim to be drivers.
