Vette Vues Magazine Tri-Power ® Award to be offered at the Corvette/Chevy Expo in Galveston

Just what is the Tri-Power ® Award ?
Vette Vues Magazine's Tri-Power ® Award

Vette Vues Magazine introduced the Tri-Power ® Award in 2013.

For those who have been around the Corvette hobby, you will recall the famous Chevy/Vettefest show in Chicago, Illinois.  The Chevy/Vettefest offered the Triple Crown Award in which owners of Corvettes that had attained an NCRS Top Flight and a Bloomington Gold Certification could apply.

The Chevy/Vettefest is no longer in production and with that was the loss of the Triple Crown Award. 

Because of this, Vette Vues established the Vette Vues Magazine Tri-Power ® Award.  Vette Vues Magazine, Inc. Tri-Power ® Award's purpose is to honor the Corvette that has achieved the highest degree of originality, condition, and attention to detail. The Tri-Power ® Award is only available at the Corvette Chevy Expos.

Before applying, applicants must have achieved the Bloomington Gold Certification and the NCRS Top Flight status.  They must also provide proof of these achievements.

The Tri-Power ® Award is for the best in restored or original Corvettes. 

Chief Judge, William Braun, is respected throughout the collector car industry.  With his expertise, he conducts a one-thousand point assessment of the Corvette.  Those that meet this criterion are inducted into the Tri-Power ® Registry and presented a numbered certificate with their vehicle VIN prominently displayed. They also receive a beautiful engraved  9x12 commemorative plaque.
