I knew ford, i knew chevy and i knew this thing called porsche, but alfa romeo, didnt know what it was. He showed it to me, got my dad infected and then all of a sudden, my older brothers infected. The contagion starts spreading through the family, to me, to my sister. The familys largely been involved in alfa romeos and fiats. Concorso italiano starts with the cars. Obviously its italian cars. Its really more of a celebration of italian style and that includes food and fashion and music. Were going to have strolling italian musicians around the grounds tomorrow, that should be a lot of fun. Its always very soothing music, a strolling mandolin. We even got a strolling accordion player. I dont know how you have strolling electronic accordion player, but were gonna have it. Were gonna achieve that goal tomorrow. The big event that we have at the stage is the fashion show. The fashion show is always the most popular thing the trailing spouse. My spouse probably falls into that category.

Its actually one of six black ferraris in the world. Six of them were black. Black being a color thats very special to meguiars kind of really showcases our product well. Preparing the car is always a special treat. Making sure that our product looks its best on the paint, so its quite the process and it takes some time, but with todays weather, its been a little bit difficult with the dew, but we made it and it looks great. You know, were a huge proponent of the hobby. We love car products, we love making sure that the car hobby is supported by the company. Its actually one of a kind, vorsteiner came out and decked the whole car out with a new body kit on it, its got some tuning suspension. Meguiars wraptivo actually wrapped the car in a matte white. Its a very special car. It was debuted last week at irvine, california. Its a one of a kind car. Its really special to us that were able to be a part of the project through the whole process. Id like to show you a special car here today. Its a ferrari enzo. I believe its the only enzo here at the show today. If you can see, its a beautiful car. Its got some beautiful paint on it. As you can see, named after the enzo ferrari. Its a very special car, our favorite color black and carbon fibre interior. Its a very light car and its actually all wrapped in a pure brawl to keep the paint in pristine condition. We wanna make sure that it doesnt get any paint chips and its able to keep that original paint on there. Its a key to keeping that value of the car. As i mentioned before, we have a very special ferrari 599 here today. Its a wraptivo packaged. Its actually a matte white, meguiars wraptivo that we have on here. With the vorsteiner body kit on it and some tuning suspension as well. Custom one off forged wheels that vorsteiner had made for us, one of a kind wheel. Again, some very special stitching inside. Matte black finish on the roof. I was actually lucky enough to be at the debut of this car last week in irvine, california. I had to mention to the owner what these letters here meant, 88, and its actually chinese good luck. So, thats what the significance of those two numbers there have. This is our meguiars 599.

Ive been here for 10 years, running on and off, mostly on. This is the first year that ive brought a nonitalian car with me. I sold my italian car and i bought a porsche turbo. Ive been a car enthusiast my whole life. Ive always wanted to have a special car. This car appealed to me because its the right size, feeling sporty car, its very well built and they handle very well. I was never really a porshe fan before this, but once i really kind of learned about the attributes of the porsches, i was really attracted to them. Its kind of like woodstock for car guys. Especially if you like italian cars which i do. I still like italian cars very, very much. You know, it has the famous turbo flares and the wide wheels. Its the top of the line 911 for 1987. At concorso, my friends are here every year, so i wanted to take my car up, let them see why i was a trader and sold my italian car and what i got instead. They still dont understand, but its a good time. Its a good time and its a good weekend away from the cares of work and living and day to day. I can come up to our little fantasy land up here and enjoy beautiful design, the sound of these beautiful engines running, see beautiful women this is my porsche 911 turbo. The front of the car, its very recognizable, its a porsche, its the traditional porsche that people are familiar with and they know what it is when they see it. Its very recognizable, although my girlfriend still doesnt understand that the trunk is in the front. She puts her luggage and things at the back for me to load in, but the trunks in the front. The turbo has the widened wheel wells and bigger highers and wheels. Front end rear. They also made a, what they call a turbo look 911 which had the same bodywork and chastity work but without the turbo charged engine, but this one does have the turbo charged engine which is about 300 horsepower. Has the famous whale tail. Distinctive aerodynamic feature. This car is pretty much all stock and all original. The only difference is that, i can tell from it, are the Steering Wheel and the stereo. gentle upbeat music my names sam murtaugh with mecum auction, im the marketing and presentation director for mecum.

Stronger teeth and dry mouth relief. intense music hi, my name is sean mcrae from san luis obispo, california and id like to welcome you to the mecum auto auction in monterey, california. This is my 1969 Chevrolet Camaro z28. I personally did the restoration on the car. I purchased the car in 1999 from the ford independence indian reservation in owens valley, california. The car was in pretty rough shape. It was sitting on four flat via split tires with a 1979 registration kit sticker on the license plate. It comes with a standard 302 motor which is in all z28s. Thats standard equipment, the only engine you could get for it. It has an m21 which is a muncy four speed transmission in it. 373 posey traction rear end. The motor, the transmission and the rear end the biggest challenge was just talking to people that actually worked for gm or had the Technical Knowledge of how the cars were actually built. What was true and correct to the car and what wasnt. Theres a lot of myths in a Car Restoration world. People have their own opinions and thoughts. When it comes right down to it though, these cars were put together as quickly as possible on an Assembly Line that constantly moved and some of the facets of the assembly process, you literally have just a couple of minutes to perform. Ive spent 11 years on this car, bringing it back to the state its in right now which is just as about as close as you can get to a new car. All right, here we go with the car. Let me show you what ive done over the past 11 years. The engine compartment has been put back as nearly identical to the day it was born from the factory. Whats unique to this car, as with all los angeles or the smog pump which is located down here. The norwood cars did not come with that, only the los angeles built cars that came out of the van ice plant. Ive mentioned earlier about the flat top hood. Youll notice that this car has the flat top hood. It was later in the production year that chevrolet made the calinduction hood standard on all z28s. This car was an early production. At the time it was not ordered with that hood. The back of the car, i spoke earlier, about the stripes on the deck lid. An Assembly Person at the factory had a very limited amount of time to install a stencil and actually shoot the stripes on the car. I would guess there was very few that have the stripes in the exact position as were specked out in the assembly manual. The trunk area is very basic in these cars. Zolatone paint was used to do the black background with the green fleck in the paint. The cars had a basic high lift bumper jack installed gentle music my name is james wallace. Im from west bloomfield, michigan. And im a retired engineer from general motors. I was in a power train system all my life. This car came out of new england area. It was originally delivered in new jersey and then the guy took it rhode island. It was in rhode island all of its life and a friend of mine that lives in rhode island knows im into corvettes. He called me and said that hey, he found one in a barn. This car was last registered in 1984. I bought it about eight years ago. It was in quite good condition. Its only got 56,000 miles on it. I did some paint work in the top and cleaned it up, and what have you. Its fairly original car. I virtually did the restoration myself except so you dont want that in your shop. But i did all the prep work for it, but the car was in quite good shape so it didnt require a lot of body work or anything like that. This car, on the low end would probably be around 50,000, the high end would be about 60,000. Itll be somewhere in that market. Theres been a fair amount of interest in it, so i suspect that itll be in that dollar range. Its kind of worth that also, thats what they get for these kinds of original, red convertibles. Lets take a view of my 71 lt1 corvette here. Theres some interesting facts about this car. It is a fairly rare car. This is a lt1 engine. Its properly detailed everywhere correct. All the finishes are correct. All the hoses, they all have the right part numbers. This is an original engine, so it has the original carburettor on it. Its very rare, it has its original smog system or air system, you dont normally see that on a car this age. Most of them have been thrown away this car is unique because it has power steering and power breaks, most of the cars dont. Its a very drivable car, its enjoyable to drive. Another rare feature, a lot of people when they restore cars, they dont get some of these original stickers and things like that on it. Thats a nice feature to have on a car. Good chrome, we redid the back bumper. Front bumpers original, but i redid the chrome on the rear bumper. Come around to this side of the car and we can take a look at this window sticker here. This is the original dealer, ar chevrolet out of new jersey. Although the car spent most of its life in rhode island. Its kind of interesting. Everybody would like to buy a car like this for 6,300 now. chuckles instead of 50 to 60,000. I appreciate you taking a look at my wonderful 1971 corvette lt1 convertible, appreciate it, thanks.
