Gold Certfied means that a Corvette has been "preserved in" or "restored to" within 95% of the way it appeared when it left the factory...no better, no worse, no different.

Our standards for authenticity and condition are simple but difficult. The goal is to attain historic perfection - not cosmetic perfection. Typically, that can be much more difficult to attain. Our highly-qualified judges have been known for their knowledge, courtesy and consistency for 30 years. Gold Certification influenced the direction that organizations, collectors and our industry have followed ever since.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Re:  Replacement Trim or VIN Tags

The practice of replacing original manufacturer's trim or VIN tags is inconsistent with Bloomington Gold's philosophy, not to mention being illegal in many states.  Although we have penalized owners in the past for such conduct, our position will now become more firm. 

Beginning with our 2009 event, any Corvette determined to have a non-authentic manufacturer's trim or VIN tag will be ineligible for any level of Bloomington Gold Certification.

Furthermore, any owner who (over time) enters more than a single Corvette with replacement trim or VIN tags will be permanently excused from any and all future Bloomington Gold judging events.   Please be careful!

Lottery Information:  If any class exceeds ten (10) registered Corvettes by March 18, 2010 5:00 pm CST, a lottery will be held to determine which cars will be judged and which ones will be placed on the waitlist. To be eligible for the lottery, your signed registration form and fee must be received by March 18 at 5:00 pm CST. Registrations received after March 18 will be put in sequence on the waitlist (in the order they were received) if your class is already full.

If your class did not proceed to lottery on March 18, your Corvette was accepted for judging.

Click here to go to the Lottery Page to see the results. 

Results will be posted no later than 8:00 p.m. CST on March 18, 2010.


Policy on Owners with Multiple Cars in a Lottery Situation:
In the case of a lottery situation where an owner has multiple cars entered into a class, all cars will be entered into the lottery and drawn at random with the other entrants. However, after an owner has had one car drawn and placed in a class, any subsequent drawings of that owner's cars will be placed into the waitlist.  Should that class not be full at the end of lottery, the Wait List cars will be moved up, in order, to the judging class.
