sort of when the convertible top is down. There was a Corvette Show & Shine last Sunday and a few of us decided to get together for a few hours to socialize

There were over 85 Corvettes there and a fundraiser for the Special Olympics. There was a BBQ, 50/50 draw, raffle, everything was geared for you to spend money with all proceeds going towards Charity

Even the A&W bear was there, playing with Sue. That is her '58 Corvette black roadster to the right. Sunday is usually a non-riding day for me so I brought

my C5 Corvette Roadster . There was even a custom Harley

with a 20" front wheel with a special paint job. as well as a Honda Goldwing

trike.

Meet Jenny, standing beside her C3 Corvette Coupe. It has a 454 ci V8 engine & 4-speed manual transmission

She just loves to pose for my camera, and for some reason I don't mind snapping photos of her too

Jenny
I must admit that I've always like the look of the early C3's. Maybe because those are the ones I remember when I was in high school. I don't think I ever wanted one even back then. I was more attracted to the non-turbo 911's, Alfa's and Lotus Europa's. But never had any of them either....

DeleteI have previously owned; 2 MGB's, 2 Alfas: 2000 GTV Veloce, and Guilia Spyder not counting T-bird, Camaro, Mustang, Firebird etc, but only 2 Corvettes. The only vehicle which I wished I still had was my 1963 GMC stepside pickup truck. I don't remember much about it except it had a wood deck in the box and a tire mounted vertical on the side of the box. We also had a lot of fun in our VW Westfalia
Some really nice Vettes there Bob, thanks for the pics.

DeleteI took lots of photos and video but didn't want to bore you with non 2-wheeled photos. But I have lots more of Jenny, lots . . .
Imagine that Bob, your camera enjoyed taking pictures of a pretty girl with a hot car. Who'd have thunk.
ReplyDeleteYou saw the bear, did you taste the food? I haven't sen one of those commercials in years.
It looks like you had a great day and beautiful weather too.

Deletemy camera has a mind of its own. It must have a chick magnet sensor, I think it points and clicks all by itself.
They were selling A&W root beer floats, don't ask me how many I had ? It was HOT, remember . . .
It was cloudy overcast in the morning, but then the sun came out and we went to a BBQ later
jenny and her ride are a great looking pair! lots of great pics bob. its hot here, i think i'll go topless today too ;)
ReplyDeleteMs M:
DeleteMMMM, can't wait . . .
I am glad that the 'topless' factor remained with the cars. I don't think that a lot of the guys would live up to my standards ;-)
ReplyDeleteI like Jenny's '69. I'm guessing on the year, I can't find my Corvette book sine I moved. No push button door knob,(68), and the egg crate gills, not the shark vents like the 70s have.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day
