I see the distinction between stock restored and OE Gold classes as two entirely different animals. It's like comparing a Div-1 basketball team to a Div-2 team, they do the same thing, but are not equal.

My take is if you are in an 'original stock restored' type class, where the owner/restorer did not prep the car for the OE concours correct paint daub, factory original NOS air in the tires and velvet glove class, that reproduction parts should look correct and no points taken if they are used. In the event, that two equal cars make it to the top, then would be the time to take special consideration as to whether its OEM or Repop. (tie breaker situation)




That's my personal opinion as well. Well said.
