Default Corvettes at the Pier (St. Pete) Pics

A decent showing of C1 & C2 Corvettes among the sea of late models. Beautiful venue on the water with quite a bit of shade.

That's a nice area. Is it near the Vinoy Hotel ? It looks like it - that's where my daughter's wedding reception was held a decade ago - very classy, "old school" elegance.

If the drive over there along I-4/I-275 and "malfunction junction" wasn't so brutal I would have tried to make this...just not worth it...to me...

Exactly, the Vinoy is just north of the Park. It is a beautiful hotel with “old” world” charm. I understand the I4/275 avoidance. I cringe when/if I drive it in an F150.

Was that a dog peeing on the tire of that white 53?

I see those do-dads along with the little boy doll leaning against the fender towards the car like he's playing "hide and seek" - I don't get any of that crap..

Happy to share. Having read a few posts about burned hoods, I thought this one gives you an idea of how piercing the sun can be if it’s aimed the right direction.

Dang, I wished I'd known about that show. Just moved to Oldsmar on Thursday and didn't have a clue.

Thanks for posting!

I like the red 1963 Corvette. The white wall tires look sharp!!! Those white wall tires look 3/4" or 1" What size are they?
