The top scoring preserved buses will be entered into the separate DOYEN class. These vehicles will also be weighted for vehicle age and resources devoted to their preservation. On this basis, the top 25 preserved vehicles will be selected for the Doyen class. All 25 Doyen entrants received special rally plaques.
The Doyen winners were (in order): 88, 261, 86, 89, 404, 292, 352, 112, 566, 113, 419, 105, 502, 103, 422, 457, 801, 99, 92, 94, 240, 102, 128, 722, 504.
