Which 2 decided to leave the ragtops up? It was beautiful here in the Keys today and had the top down on the C5 today. Pretty cool that you have 6 that get together for some good times.

Do I see three Mosport Green cars? True Vette driving fun. Glad to see another group putting the classics on the road for the world to see and hear. Dennis

Looks like the coupe is heavily outnumbered. Looks like a good time.

yes we had 3 Mosport Green cars built that way from the factory. They were all built within a few weeks of each other in Nov 65.

Always a fun day when you can cruise with other C2 cars.

It was a perfect day for top down driving. The red car had a female passenger and I kept my top up for no apparent reason.

That's a heck of a collection. I don't see that many C2s at the near by Corvette shows.
Thanks for sharing.
