Beautiful pics of the event. You don't want to spoil the thread but its nice to remember Mr. Wheldon.

It's almost unheard of for there to be that many stripe-free Cobras in one spot.

And one even had the hood closed so the car's lines can be enjoyed. Refreshing.

Thanks for sharing the photos. Beautiful cars.

Please keep 'em coming if you've got more.

That Squire 1500 Corsica Roadster is gorgeous! Never saw one in real life. I live 25 min. up the road from the fairgrounds and might have come to see it if I knew it was there...then again, $34 parking and admission...nah. Seen all the other cars numerous times.

Nice pics though. Thanks! Beautiful gull wing. Friend of mine had a white one years ago.

Parking was free, admission 25 bucks, for charity. This was only the second year for this event, small, but high quality cars.

Didn't realize it was for charity, thought parking was the usual $9. Hope you had a good turnout. I'll keep my eye out for next year's event.

Damn - just looked at the website. I'm an artist and let my membership to the museum expire a couple months ago.

Interesting story behind the Pegaso with Touring bodywork (silver coupe with the red interior):
The owner bought it new. After many years of driving, he parked it in his garage and basically forgot about it. His daughter gets married, and his new son in law takes a shine to the car. " Hey, why don't we restore this? " They did it all themselves and the result is amazing. Sure there is some artistic license with the details, but the car is magnificent.
It has been to Pebble Beach for the Pegaso Reunion and numerous other shows
