Gold Cup
&
Gold Medallion Car Show
- As is tradition with the ZCCA,
those vehicles awarded the ZCCA Gold Cup or ZCCA Gold Medallion at past
conventions are not eligible to compete in future events against other
"Judged Car Show" entrants.
However, the ZCCA recognizes that bringing a Gold level car to
convention should have some benefits. For 2011, the
convention committee has agreed to honor these vehicles with an inside
display area, a special
award and a "Best Survivor" category on the People's Choice ballot
voting.
- Awards are presented at the
closing banquet after the car show.
