Hey Florida Vetters,

Leaving for Florida the 23rd. for my wife's family visit. So I need something to do!! I usually look for good Corvette stores wherever I go. Like the Corvette Collection or Rodgers Corvettes. Anything like that in Tampa/Clearwater area. Besides I need some sanity to survive the inlaw/outlaw get together :eek: L8TER, Paul.

Hate to see this post WAY down there with no one responding. I know that there are more, but two I know of is PJ's Autoworld on Cleveland Street in Clearwater, and there's Classic Corvette's and Collectibles on route 19A in Tarpon Springs, about 10 miles north of Clearwater. I'll try to dig up more before ya leave. Too bad you weren't coming down a day earlier for the Florida Misfits gathering at Hooter's on the 22nd in Tampa!!

79,
Thanks for the reply. I was beginning to think that there weren't any Vetters in the state of Fla. Yea, I saw the Florida misfit post last night. That's just my luck!! I posted a relpy in there. Maybe you guys can leave some Vette remnants of your good time. I'll drive by so I can say I was there. Thanks for those other two shops listed above. I'll check them out after Christmas. L8TER, Paul.

Vettesic, are you looking for "shops" as in parts and repair, or "shops" as in dealers. The two I gave you were classic car dealers. I've never been to PJ's, but Classic Corvette's and Collectables is like a museum. Really nice old vettes and old F-bodies, GTO's, etc. I believe PJ's is the same. Oh well, please clarify, because I know some other shops that are more restoration and repair shops, and I know of a couple parts shops.

Whatever it is, we'll hook you up!!!! :D

There's also a place called Golden Classics on Gulf to Bay a few blocks East of PJ's. All three dealers have web sites. If you can only hit one, go to Classic in Tarpon Springs.
