Bear Mountain in Orange County, NY attracts near 1000 cars every Wednesday. This was my first time going and it was well worth the hour drive. Many quality cars from Westchester County and Northern, NJ. Ton of Hemi cars, endless amounts of GTOs and for the first time in a while, Camaros, Chevelles and Corvettes did not dominate the show feild. If you're in the area, I strongly suggest making the trip. There isn't another cruise night around like it.

Enjoy the pictures!

Daytona Yellow/Black/Black '69 Z... stunning in every way!

straight out of Speed and Custom Magazine in January/1967 was this 1964 Vette

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v441/mosportgreen66/bear%20moutain/P1010144.jpg

1969 RSZ28 early production car, flat hood, short spoiler, should be red/black.
The owner is a super nice guy who knows his stuff! Sporting a SST802, this thing was a great example.

Identical tastes! My choices as well.

Might take a 2 day trip up there and stay in the lodge overnight. A cruise that big is worth the trip.
