Our show flyers/applications have been printed and are ready to be dispersed to both spectators and exhibitors.So...The Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals Crew attended the Corvettes Unlimited Car Show and Swap Meet this past weekend to get started. As the weekend unfolded, we enjoyed time with our good friends, some good food and lots of good car show fun!
We arrived in St.Charles on Saturday and enjoyed Los Burritos Mexicanos with the Nickey Chicago Crew...MMM... Yummy and authentic Mexican Food. Of course just being in the Nickey Chicago Showroom is a treat in itself...Ask Stefano about his yellow on yellow Z28 with yellow houndstooth interior and the deluxe trim package...its gotta be a rare combination! Now that Bob Ashton is no longer manager of the Chevy Vettefest, he can admit to his love of the many Mopars in the Nickey Showroom!!
Sunday arrived and the crew attended the Corvettes Unlimited Show. Bill Braun, our judging supervisor, was showing a gorgeous 63 Z06 Vintage Racer. Not only was the car absolutely stunning, but the documentation was awe inspiring. Pictures, Race Logs and Complete History of the Car were all on display at the show. This ultra low mileage Z06 tanker is clearly one of the most documented original Z06 race car in existence, and in perfect condition too! Another long time friend of the MCACN Crew, Dave Glass from D&M , had a variety of cars including his beautiful 62 candy red gasser and incredible original Z06 Coupe, both outstanding Corvettes. There were many new faces and Corvettes and many old friends at the show too.
After the show on Sunday we savored the fabulous creations of Francesca's Vicinato with Bill and Debbie Jelinek of Route 66 Motorsports Fame ( Did you see the American Heroes Camaro that Route 66 Motorsports built and was auctioned for charity at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach for $500,000?? So awesome!!) These are people who are not only successful in business, but also truly caring and compassionate. The evening was a culinary delight, in addition to being a fun evening of conversation with fellow car enthusiasts and such fine folks!
We got to see tons of our friends over the weekend from the multitude of shows we have been involved with in the past. We got to hang out with many of your favorite swap meet vendors, several of the MCACN judges too! Many of our friends took show flyers, so be looking for them at shows and swap meets near you....or email us and and we will send you one.
Thanks to Don Picha, for the hospitality at the Corvettes Unlimited Show, Thanks to Stefano Bimbi and the Nickey Crew and Bill and Debbie Jelinek for the great eats and great company and Thanks to all our MCACN friends , who make doing what we love a possibility!
