Default Nice Corvette Display
Here are a few of the photos I'd taken a few weeks ago at the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum in Auburn, Indiana.

Yes, very nice display.

Does that black '63 coupe have 2 bar spinners on the knock offs? Hard to tell on my screen.

I took a few pics of two Auburns... I was only in there for the corvette exhibit, running a little late that day. If anyone wishes I can get in the museum to take more photos.

Why no picts. of Ed'S 70,71& the 72 last one built ZR-1'S that I owned.LOL You would have a hard time seeing all three year ZR-1'S in one place. Almost all the Corvettes are Indiana chapter NCRS cars. I think all the cars are NCRS & BG Corvettes.

I wish I had not sold Max's 72 ZR-1 or the 68 L-88 I had. I couldn't keep them all. Coffee on Monday/Friday at MICKY D'S. Lot of Garrett people there. The Corvettes will be there till the end of the month & is worth a drive to see them. Most are rare cars you don't see very often.

I bet Max still wishes he had that '72 ZR-1 back as well.

What time at MICKY D'S?

I drove there in September after going to Carlisle. I did 8 car museums and the Aub/Cho/ Dussie was up there. I really like that part of the world. If I won lotto, I would buy a place around there and go in summer. Great spot I hope you enjoy living around there it's certainly different to Australia........ Stewy
