Palo Alto Concours Sunday, 6/28

[RodKnock]

I don't think I'll be taking my car. I think I'll just come and go in the morning.

The VMOA (Vintage Mustangs Owners Association) and the NorCal SAAC clubs are meeting at 7am sharp in the Stanford Nordstroms parking lot at the corner of Sand Hill & Plum Lane.

They will have a shaded area for both clubs and, if the corral is full, people can park in the large covered parking structure or out in the large uncovered parking lots.

That's the hot ticket (and without paying $25 at the gate).

Is this where the Cobra guys are going to meet or stay? I figure I'll get there around 5:30am and watch all the cars come into the concours area, then head up a couple blocks to the Nordstrom and check out the Cobras.

Stood at the corner of Stock Farm @ Oak....just watching the parade of cars as they arrive at the registration entrance. Met a few of you (badrich and a couple other non-CC guys). A LOT of really nice cars at this show. My favorite was the '59 Ferrari 250 Testarossa (right hand drive) with the six dual-Webers poking through the lexan scoop. My cell phone camera shots will not do it justice. I didn't see the entire crop at the show, but I got a good taste for what was there...had to leave early to go to other commitments. I'm certain that those in attendance had a great time. Very hot here today, too (forecast says 98).

Saw maybe 5-6 Cobras total...perhaps there were more. TONS of Mustangs. Quite a few Shelby KR500 hardtops and convertibles from '67-68 vintage. Lots of Packards, Porsches, Ferrari's, one beautiful Lambo Muira (!!!), quite a few midyear ('63-67) Corvettes and a handful of all out race cars. The Mustang GT350 track cars were clearly the loudest of the group that I saw. There was also perhaps 20 or so vintage police cars and ambulances representing mostly the 60's, 70's and 80's. They all had working lights and sirens and made a real racket when they made their "arrival" known to all. I believe a bunch of retired police officers own/drive them.

Again, wish I could have stayed to see it all but had other commitments.
