Thanks for sharing your photos! Looks like a great time on a beautiful day. As much as I love vettes, I find shows that are open to a variety of makes and models to be much more interesting. In particular just loved that '67 vette vert, whats not to like! Also the guy cruising through in his red cobra, always had a thing for them too! Thanks again and have a good one!
