Default Got First place today!
Went to a car show today with the '89 convertible we bought last month and won 1st place in my class. Had me in the C3 & C4 class for antiques from 1968 -1993 . Really surprised . Didn't go to enter just look around but didn't see but a hand full so I thought what the hell. Image turned sideways

A C3 and C4 class? That's pretty sweet. Around here they do 84 and newer.

Yeah, they had C1 & C2 grouped together and C3 & C4 from 1968-1993 grouped. Later C4’s are grouped with all other Corvettes because of not being antique.
