NCRS NJ Regional -- Photos
Had a great weekend with the Corvette in Edison, NY at the regional meet. Scored an approximate 98.5 Top Flight. Met some GREAT Corvette owners and learned a great deal. Was a good showing of all body styles, however, the survivor cars were in full force. The lighting in the venue was horrible and just about every body shot was blurry so I ended up with a giant collection of engine compartment photos. I will try my best to explain.
enjoy. -Dan 1971 LS6, 10k original miles, unrestored! Owner was a really nice guy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...J/P1010064.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...J/P1010036.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...J/P1010035.jpg 1970 LT1 Coupe.

1966 Corvette L72, 425hp. Nice restoration, Top Flight.

No body shots because of lighting but the car was original paint, Goodwood/White, side pipes. This car had ignition trouble from day 1 and went to Motion Performance for some tuning. I have a picture of the receipt from MP but I will not post it. PM me if you want to see it. from the 1/4 vent windows. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...J/P1010013.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...J/P1010011.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...%20NJ/1102.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/198.jpg Killer Blue/beige '57 Dual Quads car! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/153.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/151.jpg |

Re: NCRS NJ Regional -- Photos
'67s got Judged on Friday. I left my camera in the hotel room that afternoon and did not get any good shots. A buddy of mine scored a 97 Top Flight on his yellow/black 435 L71 Coupe, a stunning red/black 435 convert Top Flighted too!
A lot of restamped engine pads were uncovered and a lot of surprised Corvette owners went home unhappy. From what I understand -- 45 mini-points equals 1 full point. However, admitting the motor is not original and leaving the wrong characters on the engine pad -- not stamping the pad -- is ONLY a 25 mini point deduction (less than 1 full point). If a judge discovers a restamped engine pad, you CANNOT recieve a Top Flight. This is over a 6 full point deduction. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/158.jpg 1966 L72 Covertible. Most say this is the best unrestored '66 Big Block convert in the country. Pulled from a Queens, NY garage 3 years ago. Bloomington Gold, Suvivor, Special Collection, Top Flight, and going for a 4 Star Bowtie. This car in untouched in every way. I have over 50 photos of the car if anyone needs more shots let me know. The owner is a sweatheart of a guy who loves to share information on the car! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/130.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/137.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/165.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...%20NJ/1119.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/128.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...%20NJ/1113.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/132.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/135.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/145.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/144.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/160.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/170.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...S%20NJ/177.jpg Thats all for now... enjoy. -Dan Cannot wait for the National in Boston! |

Re: NCRS NJ Regional -- Photos
Dan, nice engine shots! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif
I noticed that the unrestored LS-6 and the L-88 both had natural colored engine lift hooks. They're usually done in orange. Do you know if the LS-6 intake was ever taken off or freshened-up? Also, the '66 L/72 ( again unrestored ) looked great. I espacially liked the amount of overspray remaining on the exhaust manifolds. BTW, I'd like to see more of the '66 L/72 engine shots if you have them. Steve |

Steve [/ QUOTE ] Steve, I wish I could give you an answer but I cannot. I would imagine the LS6 has never had a freshening, but that is a guess. As for the L88, it is a frame off restoration car so I would imagine the intake ans related parts have been restored. The '66 L72 unrestored car is something else. I will scrap together some more pictures. |
