A significant portion of the GM Heritage Center�s display floor consists of various prototype, concept and show cars from throughout the years, including the multihued Corvette concepts above (AeroVette, front; Corvette TigerShark and Corvette Indy, center; one of the CERVs, rear). Of course I couldn�t ignore them while roaming the display.

The Le Sabre. If you couldn�t tell,
we�re big fans of the Le Sabre around these parts. I�d seen it in person before at the
Glenmoor Gathering a few years back, but it�s always a thrill to see it before you.

Two of the three Firebird turbine cars still makes for an impressive display.

On the left, the Cadillac Imaj; on the right, the EldoRODo.

The Astro II�

�and the Astro III, still on the original display stand

Buick�s Blackhawk, a modern interpretation of the Y-Job from several years ago.

Cadillac�s 1953 Le Mans two-seat roadster concept

Pontiac�s third generation of the Banshee concept. Behind it, the 1977 Type K Trans Am.

The two Corvair Monza concepts, the GT on the left and the SS on the right. They�re much smaller in person than in any photographs I�ve seen before.

And in the lobby they had this 1958 Corvette that Harley Earl let a staff of female designers loose on. They came up with the custom color, along with a host of minor touches intended to make the Corvette more female-friendly.
