Well went to the show and surprised to take 2nd place C3. The first trophy I have ever won! First went to a very original Elkhart Green 72 that was super clean. Great show

Hi m,
Your 68 looks terrific sitting there!
It appears to be a 'stand-out' among a nice group of cars!
I'll bet you're pleased!
Regards,
Alan

This is a very cool picture! True all American shot! The clouds, the flags, and the sharks all lined up.

All those overhead wires are quite a sight too!

Thank you for all the kind comments gentlemen. I really gave me the inspiration to do a whole car clean up and show prep this winter season and hopefully aspire to Alan 71 levels of detail!

It's nice to see that many C3s turn out for an all Corvette show. Most around here are dominated by C5s and newer.
Congratulations on the award.
