2019 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals photos

[Lee Stewart]

Bruce . . . first of all . . . a BIG thank you for posting all the photos. For some reason sites like Hot Rod and Bang Shift haven't posted photos of the show which is something they normally do.

This photo below. The car is I believe, one of the four 1970 Hemi RR convertibles. But the placard in front of it says 1969 which it isn't. Bob A. said that there would be 3 of the 4 cars at the show (the 4th was destroyed years ago). Is this car the 3rd one?

Hi Lee, I would have to defer to someone more knowledgeable...but I believe that you are correct?


Glad that you are enjoying the photos!

There were four 70 Hemi/auto Roadrunner converts on display (if you add the fresh resto Plum Crazy Car). I asked one of the guys by the unrestored car if all four cars were here-he said yes, all four Hemi autos. He said there was one 4speed made, but was confirmed destroyed years ago. Maybe someone here can verify.

I talked to one of the guys associated with the B3 and B5 cars and he said there were 5 Hemi Road Runner convertibles known to have been built in 1970. The four automatic cars were present at the show and the fifth car, which was a 4 speed, was destroyed early in it's life. The 1 of 4 signs by the cars were kind of misleading unless they were just referring to automatic cars.

I didn't speak to anyone at the show about this topic but intentionally circled back to this display to see if all 4 were there. There were indeed 4 70 Roadrunner verts with Hemi's in them. Only 3 of them had the "1 of 4" denotation on their MCACN sign so I assumed the 4th one was a transplant. Just an assumption on my part. I believe that the destroyed one was a drag strip warrior in NW Ohio back in the day.
