At CVAR we allow the car to be built to any SCCA rule book up to 1972. If you 
want to build a TR-3 to 1972 regs that's fine. However, we also have a 
pre-1961 group that is not so liberal.

<< Out of curiosity, what do each of the groups define as period correct?

Is it correct for the year of the car, correct for the year it was raced
(within the range permitted), or correct to the GCR/PCS for the club?

Example, is a 1959 car period correct if:

A. built to 1959 specs?

B. built to 1965 specs?

C. built to 1969 specs (for clubs cutting off with the 1969 GCR/PCS)?

D. built to 1972 specs (for clubs cutting off to pre-73 vehicles and
GCR/PCS)?

E. all of the above.

F. none of the above.


Other than SVRA and their history requirement of proven race history prior
to 1972, does anyone actually require the cars to have been race cars or is
building a street car the more acceptable method?
