Default Random C1/2 Bloomington Gold Photos

Bloomington was a short trip this year, parts of Fri and Sat. Slight rain here and there, didn’t hurt anything. Parts were very small again this year, mostly presented by sellers on Saturday. I did like the Cars For Sale moved into the garages and I really liked the Certification and Survivor Cars moved under the Grandstand so they had some cover. (After I found them) I did not like how many of them were gone by Noon Saturday though... tough on people walking in on Sat looking for those cars.

Here’s some pics mostly with early car interest. I’ll add a link for a C3 interest thread I’ll post there.

I talked to the owner of the split window on the trailer, he said it runs and drives, he had most of the parts, for sale at $115 K.

I think he said it was, but I quickly lost interest after hearing the price. Way out of my range...

Yikes, really? I was very interested in the clean body but I didn’t realize it ran and drove. I did not look closely but assumed it was just a body. Looked at it Fri and Sat and I never saw a price on it. Here’s one other pic of it:

As best I can remember, the FI emblem holes were crooked, at least on the left side. I didn't look further than that.
