OK everybody in the North East.
 
This is a big Corvette Show. Over 450 last year from all over the Northeast.
 
If you are planning to go, let me know.
 
If you can get there early in the morning and want to park as a group, let me know. We can meet before we go in.
 
I am planning to get there around 7 AM.
 
Here is the link to the website.

The weather forecast for Sunday is a chance of showers. I hope they are wrong.
 
I'll be there anyway.
 
Can't rain all day, can it?

Turned out to be a great day.
 
Lots of Vettes. The official count was 447, but there were many that parked outside the venue, maybe because they could only visit for a short time.
 
Or maybe they were cheap.
 
If you want to see my slide show, here is the link.
 
 
Maximize your window and crank up the volume.

Nice pictures Dave.  Looks like a great turn out and some very nice cars. Yours and Mike's look great as always. Just got back from Vettes on the Rockies in Colorado, what a great show.  Dick

Thanks Dick.
I only took pictures of C3s, but there were some nice C1 and C2s there as well.
Hope to see you and Jill at the NCM in Oct.

      Hope all of you that came out to the show enjoyed it. We'd like to hear from you about what you liked or didn't like about the show. The total count by the way was 480, our biggest show yet. Last years was 473 and the year before was 453. That's why we decided to expand out by the lake. Should the entire show be moved by the lake? Did anyone who has come out to the show in the past years park next to the lake this year and, if so, which did you prefer? Drop us an email at www.syracusecorvetteclub.com, we'd love to hear from you. Thanks and hope to see you again next year.

Rick Jay,
This was my second year. Your club does a fantastic job. I try to get there early so I can get a good parking spot with my other C3VR friends.
Everybody I talked to said they will be out by the lake next year. What a great spot to be. The only negative I heard about the lake was "watch out for the seagulls".
I would suggest you give the people the choice of the lake or the park. I know some people like being near the gazebo, some like to watch the traffic, some like the shade.
Keep up the good work. You should hit 500 in '08.

I really like that site for storing pictures and creating slide shows. It is so darn easy, even I can do it. And no cost. I highly recommend you try it with some pictures. http://www.dotphoto.com

Great show Dave!

That "bat" vette (heavy mod C3) was very cool! I've never seen anything like it.

Thanks for the pics!

Yeah, that was a custom matching trailer.
We saw something similar on the Tail of the Dragon trip last year, except it was a yellow Vette being pulled by a motorcycle.
 
I've seen some 30's and 40's custom cars pulling a half-scale clone. Very cool.
