The second annual “Crown Vettes” show will be held on Sunday August 13th, 2017 at the Lambeth Legion, 7097 Kilbourne Rd, London, from 8 am to 2 pm (draws held at 1 pm). The Lambeth Legion offers both pavement and tree lined grass parking. The Legion is located just minutes north of the 401 and 402...straight north on Colonel Talbot Road to Kilbourne Rd. We had 138 cars attend our first Crown Vettes show last year, and we are going to build on this very successful turnout this year.
On the weekend of our show, the London area has two other car related events happening. On Saturday, the Bothwell “Old Autos” show happens during the day, and then just after dinner, the crowd heads to Hartman’s East London Timing Association (ELTA) street bash on Nightingale Street in London (check ‘em out on Google – ELTA focus on true muscle cars with drag strip abilities). So shoot over to London on Saturday, catch Old Auto’s in Bothwell during the day and Hartman’s in London after dinner. Sleep over at one of our local hotels, and come on out to the Legion for our Crown Vettes breakfast and show! The excursion would be like a mini-vacation!
Please note, the Legion building will be open, offering indoor washrooms, and two air conditioned floors to seek shelter from the heat and/or rain (heaven forbid). There is also a large outdoor covered patio from which you can view the sea of Corvettes parked just beyond.
The Legion ladies are once again selling breakfast (8 - 10 am). They will also fire up the BBQ at 11 am, and will be selling hamburgers, hot dogs, sausages, and fries. The bar will open at noon (till 2 pm). Proceeds from food and bar sales go directly to the Legion.
There will be a "People's Choice" award with a trophy for the “chosen” car in each generation of Corvette. This is purely a subjective and fun award, based on what "tickles the fancy" of the lay judges. No tire treads need be cleaned! Quad C points will only be awarded for attending.
We will have several draws with these proceeds going to the War Amps.
We have done away with "pre-registration”. Entry at the gate is $20 cdn per car. This event will go, rain or shine. If it rains, the cars get wet, but the people stay dry, thanks to the two air conditioned halls and covered patio. We’ll simply dry the cars off once the rain passes.
Additional access to our flyer and map can be viewed on our club website at

C'mon out and let's have a Corvette party!
Thank you for considering us for your next Corvette experience.
