Car Show Pics
Attended a Corvette only show this past Sunday at the old Malcolm Konner Chevy dealership in Paramus NJ (now called Paramus Auto Mall). It's the same dealer I bought my first new car from....a 1968 Camaro. This dealer was famous for selling Corvettes back in the day and they still have a 2nd floor devoted to Corvettes only. Had a good time catching up with friends and taking home a 2nd place trophy in the 68>82 Concourse class......my friend Hank got 1st with his Donneybrooke Green 70 LT1 (well deserved). Here are a few pics from the show.....the Atomic Orange ZR1 blew me away!!
Enjoy

Alan I agree with you.....the old ones hold a lot more interest.

My 74 was a Malcolm Konner Chevy car....I remember driving past that dealership as a kid growing up in north Jersey and looking at all the Vettes upstairs through the glass as we drove by.
Thanx for the pics

I had stopped by on Sunday and was surprised at how 'light" the attendance was. So much so I took the time to count the cars. There was only about 45 show cars. What happened? This show used to be one of the best Corvette shows around. The place would be full. Even the service dept repair bays would be full. I got Zora and Reeeves Calloway's autograph there. Dr Ruth was even a guest one year. I guess it's just another sign of the times but it is sad to see.
On a positive note that green '70 LT1 is outstanding and was in my opinion for what ever that's worth the nicest car there. The car is beautiful and deserving of what ever award(s) it received. Yes those ZR1s are incredible machines. Both the orange and yellow cars gain your attention but I'll take the blue one that was upstairs though at 121K that's not going to happen.
Thanks for posting the pictures.
