At the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show we host some of the most significant and very real Corvettes every November, the weekend before Thanksgiving.

Irwin Kroiz is a long time supporter of what we do. Every year he joins us with show-stopping cars from his collection.

This year Irwin will be joining us November 22-23 with the #49 "Stars and Stripes Corvette L88 racer that was driven by Don Yenko, Robert R. Johnson, John Greendyke, Dick Smothers and John Greenwood. It was raced at LeMans and Sebring and today, it has been restored by Kevin Mackay and the Corvette Repair team out of New York.

We are honored to have Irwin with us again with yet another iconic Corvette from his collection.

A Father, A Son, and a Fury

In August 1979, my father, Dan Wellings, purchased this Plymouth Sport Fury GT from a longtime family acquaintance in our small town of West Union, West Virginia. The car had been in the area since it was new, and Dad had admired it all through high school. So when the opportunity to own it arose, he jumped at the chance. However, his time behind the wheel was short-lived. In 1981, the Fury got away from him—he ran through a fence on our farm and down a small hill. After a little heart to heart chat with my Grandfather, he decided to park the car. And so, for the next 44 years, the Fury sat in our farm shop, untouched, collecting dust but never forgotten.

As a kid, I dreamed of bringing it back to life. I’d often sneak down to the shop, sit behind the wheel, and imagine the rumble of the engine, the sound of the exhaust purring as I cruised down the road. One night in college, that excitement got the best of me. My buddies and I—after a little too much fun—decided we had to go see the Fury. Piling into my Ford Explorer, we set off down the mile-long road to the farm shop. But the icy, winding West Virginia roads had other plans—I ended up in a ditch before even reaching the car! So, if nothing else, Dad’s got one up on me. He wrecked the Fury out of excitement driving it, while I wrecked my “Exploder” just trying to see it. Fast forward to Christmas 2024. I told Dad that if he wasn’t going to do something with the car, I was dragging it out myself and making my childhood dream come true. He gave me the green light: “I haven’t done anything with it in over 40 years, and I’m not going to now. Go have fun.”

And that’s exactly what we did. What started as my dream became our dream together. I like to think my enthusiasm reignited a spark in my dad. Together, we’ve shared a tremendous amount of excitement and joy bringing this car back to life.

Today, the Fury isn’t just a car. It’s a symbol of passion, perseverance, and the bond between a father and his son.

Now this is the definition of REAL Day2;

Be sure to check out this very real and highly documented 1969 Baldwin-Motion 427 Camaro. Yes...this is the real-deal, NOT a "clone" or "tribute".

This is on of three black '69 Camaros you will see side-by-side at the upcoming Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show in our Sinister 69's special display, November 22-23.

Don't you wish you had a time machine and could sit down with Joel Rosen to order up your own Baldwin-Motion Supercar?
