Had the Vette for four years now and never been. Maybe this year is the year.

Can't do it. Just realized we're going to be in town the following weekend for the Motor Muster at The Henry Ford/Greenfield Village.

I'd go since it's my old hometown too but it would probably take 4 tanks of gas getting there in my '65 396ci 4 speed car.

Hehe. In '99 when I got my '65 it ran a 454 (a '73 COPO engine) with the Muncie 4 spd. Used lots of gas going back and forth to Windsor, and ran like crap too. Now it's much more suited to longer drives with its Edelbrock 350 crate engine and Tremec 5 speed.

So, another Windsorite huh? I grew up in the Riverside area (but a few blocks back of the expensive waterfront homes.)

Yep another Windsorite. I grew up in South Windsor, Centennial High and University of Windsor. Worked at the Chrysler van plant as a temporary part time to pay my way through school. Windsor was a great place to learn how to find deals.
I plan on a Tremec 5 spd next year for my 65.

I replaced my buzzy Muncie with a Keisler Tremec TKO 600 a few years ago. Love the trans but you should talk to me about the experience of getting it in/out 5x and still not quite right.

We have 150 pre-registered cars to date from Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Quebec, Ontario, and New Brunswick. Our location on the Detroit River across from the GM Headquarters is second to none. We are a sanctioned Corvette Clubs of Canada car show and are also a qualifying show for the Motor City Concours Show in Michigan leading to entry into the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green. Check us out at www.corvetteclubofwindsor.com for further information. Ron Packer 519-352-1371
