I'm not. The last 3 years have been pretty bad for the C-3's
Less than a hand full there now.

Are there any good parts available at this show. I'm asking cause I've never been to a "vette" show. Only gun and Harleys. Probably close to the same, huh?

I've been going there for at least 20 years now...damn...lol. Lots of nice Vettes and vendors. New and used parts for sale. It is an opportunity to see products up close; Al Knock, VB, Corvette Central, Trim Parts are usually there. I may go.

I am going, mostly to look for used stuff. There are fewer big vendors this year. Here is the show website.

There are always some cool cars. I usually spend more time sniffing around the cars that are for sale. The NCRS vettes I photograph for fit and finish tips, but unless there is something really rare, I don't spend much time looking at them.

I'll be there along with quite a few others folks. It's just something you do..it's usually rotten weather so it's better to wander around looking at Vettes and other cars, sipping on a Jack and Coke and waiting for the Bikini contest! And often there is a gun show next door to break up the monotony!

Only in TX baby!!!

I will be there as well. I picked up a vinyl covered hardtop there for a good price. I later found out that the glass was date coded correct for my year car. That is what I call luck.
