I would suggest those coming to the Concours, make a reservation and hit the Brumos Collection, definitely worth the visit.

I've done plating and anodizing for a car being shown at the concours. Does anyone know what date that car has to be on the grass? Also have to go to Orlando and want to plan the trip.

I would surmise Sunday morning. If you go on Saturday, one of the great to-do’s is going to the Ritz parking garage and seeing many of Sunday’s cars sitting in a spot, just like you would park your daily driver.
