My local car club's large annual show (450-500 cars if good weather) takes what I think is a rather unique approach to selecting cars for awards. First, there are up to 3 awards given for each decade of cars exhibited so every era is represented in the awards ceremony. Secondly, awards are not necessarily based on condition, authenticity, rarity (although those can be factors) but rather based on cars that represent something unique to the judges, it could be styling, originality, overall condition, or anyone of a number of other factors that attract the judges interest and make the vehicle unique enough in some way to be honored. Members of the hosting club are not eligible for awards. And winners cannot repeat for 3 years. It's proven to be a very successful formula.
