Default Another Saturday Morning

I’m sorry this it such a terrible photo, but I figured I’d post since there are three of the 25 or so Bloomington Benchmark ’67 big blocks in the shot. There were two more '67 Benchmark Big Blocks in the garage behind us, but we had three outside for this impromptu photo. The two blue/blue cars are a slightly different shade of Marina Blue even though they are original paint cars. I’ve seen this with red, also. In contrast is the new ZR1 in the background.

We get a group like this together every Saturday morning here in Austin and work on whatever everyone brings. We had seven original paint, Benchmark Corvettes there along with a ’63 409/425 horse Impala, a '65 fuelie, and a '66 coupe. It’s great fun.

Awesome group Tim, reminds me of the old Classic Motors days.

How about some more pictures?

It's not a very pretty place where we gather, but we have a great lift and all the tools we need.

I'm jealous as we are several months away from top down weather up here!

Beautiful conduit in the background. Some Saturday mornings we have 10 to 15 guys here. We've prepped many a Corvette for NCRS and Bloomington. We're all from different walks of life, but we've met here for years working on our cars. There are times when we feel that we may actually know something
