I like the plaque on the Auburn that certified that the vehicle had been driven in excess of 100.1 mph before being shipped.

One of Auburn's body Draftsman Dick Robinson once revealed that on a stroll thru the body assembly shop he witnessed workman "energetically tacking plates" on to bodies which had not even been mounted on chassis.

That is how Carlisle all started... The 2 guys who eventually started Carlisle, wanted to show their Corvette at Hershey. That was around 1970 or so, and NO Corvette was old enough for AACA ( 25 years). So the 2 guys ( Bud and Butch Miller, IIRC) didn't get a court order, but in the bets American entrepreneurial spirit started their own event, specializing in post WW2 cars. Its a great America success story.

So Carslile is Not a Go deal for model t parts or 33 34 ford parts or rear fenders/running boards for a 30's gmc?
