Default "Blast From the Past" Video of CSC Rally in 1958

Our club, Corvettes of So. Cal. has been around since 1956 with a long and varied history with several 2nd generation members.

One of these members recovered 16 mm footage of one of our rallys held in 1958 and had it transfered to digital format for display on our club's web site. Sorry, no sound.

I've included a link (hope this works). The video is about 10 minutes so sit back and enjoy a “Blast From The Past.”

Works for me.

Also works in the Southern California forum and another there has been to it and commented. Maybe try it in that forum too.

Haha, awesome! Thanks for sharing! That's way cool to see

201MB file so be patient people with slow internet. Best to right-click and download if you aren't on a fast connection. You will need Quicktime or another .mp4 video player...

Dude, what color blue is that 57 fuelie at the very beginning?! It looks like a '55 color on a '57, it looks awesome!

I like all that open land around that body of water. I also like the price of gas back then, .27 and .31 cents a gallon.
