Default "Corvettes & Coffee" - Saturday, November 26th

If you're all turkey-ed out on Saturday, November 26th and you want to check out a 1978 Indy Pace Car true barn find with only 13 miles on the odometer, you might want to go to the Corvettes & Coffee day at Corvette Mike's in Plymouth, MA. The 78 has quickly become a real celebrity and is still 100% covered with all the dirt and dust it accumulated during the 33 years it spent in a barn!

Come any time between 10:00 and 4:00!

Elaine

a nice time put on by Corvette Mikes in Plymouth. they brought out the barn find 78 pace car and gave it, its first bath in heaven knows how long. Several members from the clubs that attended took turns washing a section of the car. From what they said the Sheik from Abu Dabi bought the car...they say he has a collection of cars with over 2000 vehicles in it...nice to have money..lol
