Default Attended Amelia Island Concours....Check These 10 Photos!!

Yesterday, Sunday, March 15th, I attended the Amelia Island Concours for the first time. Its held at the Ritz-Carlton on the golf course. A tremendous show.....more impressive cars as a group than even at the Hershey AACA meet. It was great weather and the turnout was huge.....many celebrity judges from the automobile world...including Chip Foose (he is in one of the pictures below), Brock Yates, Barry Meguire and more. Thought I would share these pics with you guys here on the C6 section where I hang out most of the time. Hope my photo host holds out....gave me some trouble with posting up.

Barry was in our car club for a while. That's right, he's a Vette guy.

Rumor is that when he stops traveling so much, he'll re-join. What a great guy.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing . . .
