We had another big group on Saturday since it was a clear, cool morning. Some of the Corvette guys brought their bikes instead of Corvettes. We still had some good stuff.

Here's a Benchmark/Top Flight '67 435 roadster.

Here's a very nice 427/390 roadster. I saw this owner at a stoplight three years ago and told him I had a '67 427. He asked me who to bring the car to for repairs. I told him about our get together every Saturday and shouted out the address. He showed up the next Saturday with his car and we spent about 20 weekends getting the car ready for NCRS judging. It scored 97% in October at the Frisco Regional at its first ever judging event. This car has the window sticker, tank sticker and POP. It has the original engine, transmission and rear. No radio, too.

The maroon/maroon fuelie roadster. We also prepared it for NCRS judging and it scored 96% at the Frisco Regional. This was the first time it was ever judged. It's a very nice original car with one repaint.

The yellow Benchmark/Top Flight 427/390 that was shown by Chris P and purchased by me in 2004. It has a new owner as of last month. Great, heavily documented car.

Chasing an electrical gremlin in a 427 Cobra. One of the guys was an Air Force mechanic and he traced the trouble with the faulty fans to a bad ground wire. Here's the 427 Cobra and a red/white Bloomington Gold, Duntov coupe that just made the 25 mile drive in.

I've always had a liking for those Cobras (especially blue), maybe as much as the 'vettes [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]
Wow, did I really say that?
