Ed Cohen, Dave Shindle, and I had our Scorpions at the Rockville Antique Car Show on Saturday, in Rockville, MD, a northern suburb of Washington DC.
Ed's car was selected to represent the year 1976 in the "Celebrating the Automobile by Decade" display with a photo of the car in the show program - not often you see a '76 Scorpion parked next to '66 Olds Toronado. Dave brought his Monte-replica '77 Scorp, and I arrived early with my '76 to help direct traffic in the Fiat display - got to park next to Harlan Hadley's Fulvia (BTW he's the DC Alfa Club president).
Out of 500+ cars on display, we had 24 Fiats and 4 Lancias. The Alfa guys got their crap together and had 29 Alfas on display, which is huge leap over the single car showing last year! The Alfas even took the Mayor's Prize with a pre-war Alfa rally car. There were also about 20 or so Ferraris mixed in with the Corvettes.
Anyway, I've posted a few pics in the gallery:
