Spring 08 Chevy Vettefest LS6 Showcase!

[bashton]

I know it seems like it may be early, and I know I am always on here with a "shameless plug" for Chevy Vettefest, but you guys know I am committed to this!

Anyway, the Spring '08 show will return to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont April 5-6, 2008 and in keeping with our theme of having cool sYc based Showcase Displays, we have made arrangements with Rick Nelson of the LS6 Registry to put together an LS6 Showcase.

This special gathering will have some very notable cars and is open to not only Chevelles, but also El Caminos and Corvettes.

As always, candidates MUST be REAL documented examples, absolutely no clones or tribute vehicles! If you have an LS6 equipped Chevy and would like to be a part of this, please contact Rick Nelson at [email protected] or [email protected]

I will start the list with our first registered LS6, owned by a guy who "Gets It!"

1. Dennis Cumby, 1970 Original Owner LS6 Chevelle, Black

Rick is currently looking at several other candidates which we will list when confirmed and I know he has several already lined up. I will let Rick add to this list when he is ready!

Thanks/BA

An LS6 area would be real cool, would love to see a few El Camino's in the mix as well.

This will be a very cool showcase.

Rick, I know of one Cortez Silver LS6 that will be coming down...from your neck of the woods.

Oh he will be there. What is a VetteFest party without Chad.

I have 10 cars including at least two convertibles so far that have given me about a 90% green light and have many more yet to contact. I would really like to get a sampling of many of the rarer colors such as Daytona Yellow, Hugger Orange, Mist Green, Gold, etc. I am also having a hard time locating a quality El Camino. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

We also plan on having a finished rolling chassis (possibly Don Stowers) and a completely restored engine as well as a couple of hopeful race cars and literature on display. With any luck we can make this into a realy nice display with almost total representation. Thanks in advance for anyones help locating quality cars that are interested in displaying.

Hey John (SSL78), how about we get a hold of Glen....see if he`d bring his Bragance (Sold) Fathom Blue LS6. It`s a beautiful car....one that should be part of this showcase.

Dan,
Glen's Fathom Blue car was sold by a small dealer way South/West of the City. Mike G. has the Brigance LS6 Red 4 speed bench.

Yep, Chevy Vettefest is not complete without representation from the Mike G. collection.
