spotting for Bill
Saw a nice '66 Corvette today. I was able to narrow it down to a 65-66; I couldn't recall the difference off the top of my head although we talked about it in an email once. The owner was impressed though As you can see in the close up it isn't in perfect condition, but he said he's had it for 30 years and it's pretty much a daily driver.

Later saw a nice C5 Z06 with a pretty big bulge in the hood at ND

That is a great car. Thanks for the pics.
I guess the gas cap on the red one if for refueling on the way to work when every split second counts.

That one day better be tomorrow!

I saw a red late 60s Mustang convertible, then later a turquoise '57 Thunderbird followed by a yellow '55 Bel Air today. No pics But I'm guessing they're from a cruise-in, I'll try to find out

Did you seriously put a bumper sticker on your Vette? I'm really starting to worry about you.

Excellent school, but the funny thing is, I went to Vincennes. That sticker has been on the plexiglass window since the early 70's, and I'm afraid to try to remove it. Plus, it is an old style design so kind of cool now.

I though you were going to point out the Live Bait sign. CHECK

I also like the "live bait sold here" sign in the corner.

Another nice 61.

Solid axle Corvettes are great. Thanks for all the spoting reports!
Usually I'm a bit of a minority when I go out...
