    Speedster and the NCRS

    That's a really good point, particularly if you are new to Flight Judging. Never go out and make changes just because a judge, or the manual, says something is wrong. The NCRS judging manuals are just a guide, written by people with lots of knowledge and a passion for the cars, but people none...

    Callaway Speedster on QVC...

    That's 5-6 Eastern time, right? Any idea what the name of the segment is so I can figure out when it is on here? I hate to think of watching QVC all afternoon... The guide shows a segment called 'TGIF' starting at 2:00 MST, which would be a straight timezone translation, but I don't know if...

    Speedsters: Where are they?

    Hi Kevin, and welcome to the :CAC. I'm certainly not an expert on the market, but I'm pretty sure you can expect to pay a solid 6 figure price for any Speedster that might hit the market (at least I hope that is the case, if not, don't tell my wife :D). The possible exception may be the blue...

    Speedster and the NCRS

    Just to be clear, everything with the word "Corvette" on it (from 1953 to 1993 at least) technically "qualifies" for NCRS judging. During that judging, anything that differs from the way it was delivered to the original owner that the judges can identify is cause for a point deduction for...

    Speedster and the NCRS

    Not really, but since it HAS been pretty quiet around here, I thought I would share an article I wrote for our last NCRS Arizona Chapter newsletter. I'm the editor, and I was just preparing our next newsletter when I saw this article again. Several of my NCRS brethren have asked me about the...

    I am just coming off a wedding (my daughter), a college graduation (same daughter), a high school graduation (another daughter), all of the gifts associated with each event, and we just bought a house to fix up and resell. Right now my biggest fear is that you will find one for sale. :ugh

    Speedsters: Where are they?

    This is a weird coincidence... The recent Speedster discussion got me to looking through some older threads, and I resurrected this one from when I just started looking for a Speedster. The car on this magazine cover is actually #007, the one I ended up getting. Critt99 sent me a copy of the...

    Speedsters, identify each.

    Yes, I think that, and you see something similar in the seats. My car does not have that, the leather is smooth.

    Speedsters, identify each.

    As long as we're on this topic, does anyone have any photos of #6 (Cherry Pearl w/ Chamois)? With the addition of the two photos of #2 above, #6 is the only one I have no photos of at all.

    Speedsters, identify each.

    If that is a capture from the video, I see what you mean (in the other thread) about the color. It does look awfully familiar...

    Speedsters, identify each.

    The second one from the front would not be #3. The Steel Blue is a much lighter color than that one. I don't have a photo of the Steel Blue Speedster, but here is a Steel Blue C4:

    Callaway Cars West here!

    Cool! BTW, my offer still stands - if you make it out here with one of the cars and want to do a mini-Callaway Night at the Pavilions car show, let me know. You would draw alot of attention on a Corvette-night (first Saturday of each month).

    Speedsters, identify each.

    I believe that is my favorite photo ever. :upthumbs I think the numbers should be (left to right) 5, 4, 6, 8, Series 2 #2, 10, Series 2 #1, 1, 2. The Series 2 Speedster (non-LM body) has two ducts in the front bumper, the Series 1 Speedsters have 4. Number 7 was not in the photo. It looks...

    Callaway Cars West here!

    Welcome Pete! Best of luck with the West Coast facility, I think you're in a great location, and that there is LOTS of business out here. It will also be nice to have a closer option than Old Lyme if I need to get anything done to the Speedster. :D I really enjoyed meeting you in Bowling Green...

    A bit of Callaway history...

    I don't think that is right. Mine is the 2nd Speedster built (January 1991), and it is a 500 series car. However, from what I have learned (which admittedly isn't much yet), the 500 series was an extra cost option that got you, from what I can tell, only a special intercooler label. Therefore...

    I'm nuts to pay this...

    It's a 3 step epoxy coating that was done by a local garage franchise. www.premiergarage.com is the URL, and they are franchised all over the place, I understand. The stuff is great, almost indestructable. I've spilled every automotive fluid know to man on it, rolled floor jacks around, used...

    I'm nuts to pay this...

    Now my garage is complete (almost)... Well, it took a bit longer to get it than I thought it would, but it finally made it. The lift posts cover the ends of the banner, but the wall parallel to the car has cabinets on it, so that's about my only option for hanging it until my daughter and her...

    Yep. Here's a shot of the plaque on the dash. Don't tempt me. :L
