I've seen folks park in that spot (...not next to the GTO, but on other occasions).

The 67 Firebird had a cool story, the original owner lived in El Paso and the car was stolen in the 70s, well in the 80s it turned up in Juarez, but they had converted it to a Camaro RS and were trying to sell it in El Paso, the sheriff found out and confiscated it when they had a chance and brought it to a body shop where the current owner bought it and restored it to a Firebird

I took this one at the grand opening of the LHDRA new world headquarters.



It was parked out back and I felt like it needed some love.

Quick question: The OP title is - "Parking Lot Paparazzi" so does that mean intent was random parking lot pics or morphed to include parking lot car shows too?

No worries either way...

Here's a '64 GP I saw in Cocoa Beach, FL last month at a "Storage Wars" auction.

Then, there's the dual quad '70 Hemi Challenger at the same auction that went for $69,000--but that's another story for another post--with the story. You'll see this one on Mecum or Barrett-Jackson in a year or two at $500K to $1 million.
