The Greenwich Concours d’Elegance 2013 was held June 1-2 at the Roger Sherman Baldwin Park in Greenwich, Connecticut. The waterfront park situated on the Greenwich Harbor once again provided an excellent setting for the 18th annual event.
Since its founding in 1996, the two-day Greenwich Concours is actually two Concours, back-to-back. Saturday’s Concours Americana is exclusively for American makes, while Sunday’s Concours International is for imported marques.Collectively more than 250 American and foreign cars were exhibited at this year’s Concours, including many of the pre-war brass-era, the grand classics of the late 1920s and ’30s, and such marques as Aston Martin; Ferrari; Jaguar; Mercedes-Benz; Rolls-Royce; Porsche; Maserati; among others.
Best in Show, International at the 2013 Greenwich Concours was awarded to the 1947 Ferrari 159S Spider Corsa, owned by James Glickenhaus. Chassis 002C is reportedly the oldest Ferrari car still in existence. The 1957 Maserati 300S of Herb Wolfe won People’s Choice, International. Best of Show, American went to the 1914 Locomobile Model 48 Touring of Nyle Blanck, while Craig Kappel’s 1934 Packard 1106 Boattail Speedster won People’s Choice, American.

Beautiful photography – thanks for sharing !!
The Cunningham road car shown here really caught me off guard. I did not realize that Mr. Cunningham had actually produced road cars. What a beautiful thing this is compared with Le Monstre, (http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/22/after-62-year-absence-le-monstre-will-stalk-le-mans-again/) one of his first Le Mans race cars (1950). There’s more good info on his subsequent road cars at this URL: http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z8857/Cunningham-C3.aspx
Where are photos from Saturday? I think I know. No SCD photographer on hand.
From the picture I’d say the guy with the 1930 Rolls is lucky on both counts – the car is nice but the Babe that’s with him is even better.
