sale in the swap meet area if they are set
up with a vendor’s spot.
The Manufacturers Midway is where
you’ll find most of the larger after-
market vendors displaying their latest
hardware for sale. You will also find
the Chevrolet display with the latest
Corvette offerings. This is direct engage-
ment on GM’s part with their customer
base. They not only bring a large display
but also a sizeable contingent of engi-
neers to engage and inform prospective
buyers with what is in the pipeline. On
Friday and Saturday, the engineers con-
ducted hourly seminars in the GM tent
and vehicle walk-arounds in front of the
main grandstand. Other vendors, like
main show sponsor Corvette America,
also went beyond simply selling parts
and also held seminars on things like
online Corvette resources, interior dye
techniques and how to buy and sell a
Corvette. Also on the menu every year
is a burnout contest and a bikini contest

The Solid Axle Corvette Club usually
sets up at the main entrance to the fair-
grounds with a rather elaborate display.
For these folks it’s not just another show.
They put on the full display with props
like these period-correct fuel pumps.
If patina was your thing, this 1972 C3
had it to spare. This was perhaps the
most worn-out paint we saw out on
the show field.
