Corvette Takeover 2023???

The Takeovers at the Hamilton Grill were great, but last year's at Carnegie Center was "off-the-hook". Anybody hear if there are any plans for a repeat (or multiple repeats) for 2023?

I have helped on this event in the past and this year I am one of the organizers. So please let me know if you have any questions.

Also we are looking for owners of "Specialty Corvettes" for a really cool display. Think Pace Cars, Special Editions, etc. So if you own one please reach out and I can see about including you in the display. Last year we displayed every color of the C8, which was a really cool display.

A list of needed Corvettes includes:
1978 25th Anniversary
1982 Collectors Edition
1993 40th Anniversary
1995 Pace Car
1996 Collectors Edition
1996 Grand Sport
1998 Pace Car
2008 Wil Cooksey Z06
2008 Hertz HZH
2009 GT1 Championship
2011 Z06 Carbon Edition
2013 60th Anniversary
2017 Collectors Edition
2018 Carbon 65
2021 C8.R Grey
2021 C8.R Yellow
2023 70th Anniversary White
2023 70th Anniversary - Carbon Flash

Thanks
Jeff aka Zipity's Garage

What? No 2013 Collector Edition 427 Convertible? Always the red-headed step-child. In the words of the immortal Rodney Dangerfield, "We don't get no respect."

if the model isn't listed that just means we already have an owner signed up to bring that model to the Takeover.
