Default First Cruise-in and Car Show with the Corvette

The Alabama weather finally cleared up enough to allow for some weekend fun. First cruise in and car shows with the Corvette. The wife and kid LOVED IT. Such a blast

Just about. I was the only Corvette at the AM gathering and one of a few at the big gathering in the evening. There was a C1 and an 85 C4, but I got there too late to get a spot next to them. The car did get a lot more traffic than I thought it would, so that was cool.
The kids did like it. It's not a show car, so I let the kids get in it and mess around a little. They loved it.

Tell your brother to come out to the Cars and Coffee meeting at Hoover Tactical every Saturday morning. A lot of cool cars nominally make it out.

Awesome car!
Like you, I did my first one as well in Huntsville, AL, a little while back (Cars and Coffee).
Good to hear it was fun for the whole family.

Very nice '95. Makes me want to get mine out of winter storage. Cannot wait now, maybe this weekend weather permitting as Saturday is the first outside show of the year.

Where in Huntsville do they do the Cars and Coffee? I'm actually from there and my folks still live in Huntsville. I've been waiting to drive up and take my dad to a meet. He would love that.

There's always lots of shows every weekend around. I don't do shows much anymore, but I do like cruise-ins.

That's me too, I may have misstated. I'm not planning on doing many shows as my car is a daily and I don;t want to worry about keeping it show quality. Drive-in and meets are one of the main reasons I wanted the car. But yes, absolutely. I will be making the trip in the next month or two, so hopefully between us and Vader, we can make a strong C4 showing.
