Not exactly sure what you mean by this, but I did have to ignore about 20 C4-5-6s for every car I stopped to look at...

Some of the cars look like they've been through a sand storm. Any idea what happened?

I used to go every year when everthing was free. Parking,food and t-shirts.
I had some friends there with a 2010 Callaway GS and 96 GS vert and coupe,plus a few C-3s they were wanting to sell. I just stayed close to home with a local car show.

Are they worth more if they leave the dirt/dust on them?

They are more interesting being displayed as found. They can wash them any time. They were showing people exactly how they were discovered. There were signs on both that said "Don't Touch!!"

What's the story on the 67 barn find? I know when Mike found the C1 less than an hour from Effingham but didn't here anything about the 67. And the only thing posted about either was "DO NOT TOUCH".

On the note of Funfest, 3 members of our club (Coles County Corvette Club) won Celebrity Choice Awards, a 66 Convertible picked by Dave Burroughs, a 69 Convertible and a 98 Pace Car!! KUDOS to all!!
