Was your car at Bloomington in 88 or 89 ?

[Tom H.]

I was just going through an old box of pictures I found in the attic. I found a ton of pictures I took at the 88 - 89 Bloomington Gold event. I was just a young punk just entering the Corvette world. Took pictures of everything !

I have many pictures of the L88's and some of the C2's and C3's that interested me. If your car was there, being judged I'd be glad to see if I have a shot of it for you. I'll be glad to forwad a copy to anybody that has an interest. Drop me a PM or reply here and I'll see if I have it.

Hey Tom,

Any shots of cars in the 89 Special Collection? I did a car that was in there.

Thanks, Rich

Hi Rich !

I think so. As a rookie Corvette kid, I missed the special collection in 88. I made sure to catch it in 89. Even still have my program. Tell me about the car. I'll see if I have a shot of it.

Tom, Wayne, that be me. I am wondering if the picture Tom has is from '87. I drove my car straight to the show field and straight back to the trailer in '88. I don't remember stopping by a tent

Dick:

I can assure you that the picture I took was from the Earthquake year. 1988. That was the first year I ever went. That picture was probably taken on Saturday. I remember it was really hot ! I wore that Earthquake 88 shirt until it just fell apart. That was a cool weekend !! Anybody know how to get one of those shirts today ??

Here I am, when I was young and skinny. Next to one of the first L88's I ever saw ! Wearing my new T shirt.

Tom,
I had my '64 at the Silver Salute display (1964s) in 1989. Red convertible with white soft top in the second row, 8 cars right of center when viewed from the front of the group.
I trailered my car from Rochester, NY to Rockford, IL to stay with a Corvette buddy. We drove my car from Rockford to Bloomington (about 2 hours) for the show.
Maybe I will bring the car back for the 50th anniversary of '64s!
