Another Saturday Morning

[TimG]

After a few not so nice Saturday's we finally had a great day to bring some cars out.

Here's a local car and it's one of my favorites. 1966 427/425 (L72) with the original engine and the original window sticker.
The car came with factory sidepipes, red/black, two tops and we all did a frame on restoration in Leroy's garage. It took about one year, but the car scored a high Top Flight in Waco.
This car is driven fairly regularly.

Here's a nice trio of original paint, red Corvettes. The first is an amazing '67 red/black 427/435 with lots of options. It's a recent Bloomington Benchmark car with tank sticker, POP, and shippers copy. The far car is a 427/390 Benchmark '67 Corvette. The middle car is a Bloomington Survivor in all four catagories. This coupe is a base motor Corvette with sidepipes. We had to put the original paint red cars together for a photo.

Leroy's garage sure isn't a fancy place (as you can probably tell from the pictures), but it's a great place to work on our cars and we have a lift and all the tools we need. Leroy is a local Corvette and Chevy 409 guy that enjoys having us hang out behind his business on Saturday. There's a number of good restaurants to walk to for lunch.

That is an amazing collection of unrestored cars. I bet the best part of meeting weekly is discovering new info, sharing knowledge and helping each other. Looks like you have a lot of fun....

We didn’t have our typical Saturday get together as one of the guys acquired a ’66 Corvette over in Houston. We drove over with an open trailer and picked up the car.

Here is one of the highest optioned ’66 Corvettes ever ordered; on top of that, it’s a Bloomington Benchmark and Special Collection car with a shippers copy to document every option on this car.
The car is Nassau blue with blue interior and the options are;

427/390
