Whew... this is not all of them, but a nice grouping.

First and foremost, for all the Corvette folks at the Concours, and you want a copy of a picture, please email me at andy@corvette-guru.com. I will send you the original jpeg. If you are brave, I will email you the RAW file! It's a biggie, tho, 15mb! The jpegs are a much more manageable 5mb. There is no charge for the images. Just be sure to tell folks about the Guru!

If anyone knows the guy with the white 67, let him know. I have his name, but I have no contact info.

The angular thing was a 1988 Aston-Martin Lagonda. Neat car, very complex, potentially unrelable... infact, junk comes to mind. The owner was asking $85k... yea, right.

The Bugatti. Just don't see them on the road.

I just like Ferrari's... and the 599 isn't an exception!

At the same time, that Alfa Romeo is just lovely! It's a new model, the 8C. Based on Ferrari and Maserati components.

There were not a lot of Vettes, but the ones there were sweet.

I loved the red 60. The white coves really set it off. At the same time, the white/grey 57 was equally striking, but for totally different reasons.

The teal one is all original. Amazing.

The 67 is really nice.

The 71 LT1 was really nice. The paint was perfect. Literally. Just lovely.

The 63 SW (see plate!) was really sweet, too. Very nice car. I left a guru cling on their seat, so I hope he/she checks here.

The white racing Corvette was the 1960 Sebring class winner! Real history there!

That huge silver thing? It's another creation from the Blast-o-line Brothers. It's powered by a Packard Marine V12... yea, from a PT Boat. It gets 1.5 MPG. And it's loud.

The orange thing is just cool... a 1972 Lambo Muria S. Oh so sweet. Sidewinding V12. Rather interesting car, just known for huge amts of cabin heat.

That spacy looking thing is actually a Pininfarina "Streamliner." It is turbine powered and actually drove out under its own power! Loud... sounds like a helicopter without the propwash.

I liked the last pic of the MG with the Ferrari. Seemed neat.

Great pics! Of course I'm always a fan of the C2s but that white "rat rod" corvette is pretty cool, too.

Great pix!

The Miura is an all-time favorite of mine.

PT mobile looks a lot like Leno's Tank car. Same builders, I guess?

I believe that Aston was the most expensive mass produced car when it was built. I remember an article in Car & Driver comparing it to a Subaru Justy (the LEAST expensive at the time).

Interesting cars, Andy. Thanks for sharing!

Nice Pics !! Thanks for sharing.

That 67 vert is just an incredible car to me.... and in fact, what I was originally looking for when I decided to buy a corvette 13 years ago..... but then I got a whiff of the prices and was forced by budgetary reasons to buy a C4..... someday though, I'd like one in my garage.
