2015 Forest Grove Concours d'Elegance
« on: April 28, 2016, 04:21:18 AM »
Forgot I had these photos, but this last summer was the first time I have entered the Camaro in the stock portion of the Annual Concours d'Elegance held in Forest Grove, Oregon. Was a interesting time having be present during judging (I am used to doing ISCA shows) and having to start the car and have them check all the lights other components. Only had one complaint though with the judges and that was they were not complete experts on Chevy's cars (my class was GM cars 60-72) because I got into an argument with them over transmissions. They were of the belief that the M in M20,21,22 stood only for muncie and you couldn't have a saginaw M20.

Was surprised to take 3rd in class though because there was some amazing cars in the class. 2nd place went to a nice 65 Buick Riviera and First went to a 2 owner 1970 Yenko Deuce Nova that was fresh off of restoration. I've fixed a few things this winter and ready to take it again and see what happens.

Congrats on the show, and placing in your class.
I like the color of your 68 and the blue Nova, seems like they tried to duplicate that color for the 2010 model.

Thanks, the blue they are using on the 2016 Camaro looks really close to LeMans blue in the sunlight. That 2010 light blue had a lot more green in it. They are hard to find now as well. It was a short lived color only lasting about 6 months.
