Default Wazoo featured at the Washington DC car show

The Corvette Club of America (CCA) asked us to display ZR-1's in their exhibit during the Washington DC car show at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in DC. https://www.washingtonautoshow.com/
Move in is today 1/19, press preview day is 1/20 and general admission to the public is 1/21-1/30.


A few rules we have to follow: 1/4 of fuel or less, locking gas caps or taped gas cap, battery disconnected with ends taped. Have to show a Covid vaccine card and wear a mask to enter.


The CCA wanted to have all 8 generations of Corvettes represented but so far could not get a C1. Issue is unless you have a trailer, you have to drive into DC. A few days ago we had snow so salt on the roads is still an issue. We have access to a hose and water at the loading dock in case we need it. Lucky roads are dry today for move in....snow expected tonight.


Jagdpanzer (Phil), Secondchance (Yun), Arctic91 (Scott) and I will do our best to represent......if you are in the area, come by! Will post up some photos shortly.

Charley,
That is GREAT!!!
Except for having to show "papers". Tougher to get into a car show than to do some other things.
Happy for each of you, and it's great opportunity to teach others about these amazing cars.
Enjoy it and have FUN!

( and post some pictures of 246! )

Marty

We were able to see the new 2023 ZO6 on display. Glad Phil posted a picture with all 4 of our cars, Scott and I had to leave before Yun arrived to catch our ride with Dan (DandT67) back to MD.
