This past weekend, I had a chance to take a quick trip to sunny Florida and attend the famed Amelia Island Concours D’Elegance. This was my first-time visit and if you have anything resembling a “bucket list”, you must put this event on it. It is an amazing overload of automotive porn. Needless to say, I endured a mild case of priapism and no, it was not due to a blue pill. Instead, I blamed the four-wheel works of art on display. What a day!
As if that was not enough, shortly after we crossed the main gate a formation of old War Birds flew by. Followed by a B-25 Mitchell flying at tree-top altitude. What can I say? What a way to get such a car show started.
I took many pictures that will take me quite some time to develop in my digital dark-room. So, let me get started with the first thing I saw after I claimed my admission ticket:
Behold the new 2014 Stingray Corvette. Holy shit on a cracker! I have seen pictures of the new Vette but believe me, they make it no justice. You must see this shark in the flesh – it is stunning.
And finally, one of the derriere…
Now that is what I call a bad ass.
The good looks are not only skin deep. The legendary LT1 engine RPO makes a comeback – this time being even more powerful than ever. I can’t wait to see the real-deal on the street…
As mentioned previously, I have many pictures to sift through and edit. I have plenty to keep me busy and I hope to have them on this blog as fast as I can get them ready. So please stay tuned…
