MCACN Corvettes

The 2018 Corvette Legends Invitational display was an extremely enjoyable feature at MCACN this year. I was fortunate to have several Corvette enthusiast owners bring their Corvettes to the show for all of us to enjoy. Here are a few photos from the display.  I’m already getting ready for 2019, and as always, you can expect more L88 Corvettes and other rare Corvettes in my display!

So, for 2019, I will not be announcing which 1968 or 1969 L88 Corvettes will be featured in my future publications of Corvette Legends Magazine. I’m going to keep that a surprise. So my 2019 display at MCACN will always be your best bet for maximum exposure for any Corvette owner.

Please contact Bob Ashton at MCACN for get your Corvette into the Corvette Legends Invitational Display at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals (MCACN) in Chicago.

My MCACN 2017 display featured 5 of the 1967 L88 Corvettes, some Tripower 427 Corvettes and 2 Guldstrand GS90 Corvettes.

I’ve been a sponsor of the MCACN Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show since its inception in 2009.  In 2015, I sponsored the new Corvette Legends Invitational Display, which has continued year after year.  Here you will find photos and descriptions of all the previous participating MCACN Corvettes from the display.  This list is continually updated through out the year so you can always find something new! If you are a true Corvette enthusiast, The MCACN Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals is a show you should attend!

The 2016 display featured some rare developmental models, original unrestored models, and also contained 4 of the total of 66 N03 optioned “Tanker” Corvettes.  I will be posting photos and articles on each car from my display as time permits.  So keep checking my site for updates.

Please check back often as more Corvettes from the former displays will be posted.
