Patrick - thank you for taking the time to post those pictures. This is the first Monterey weekend I've missed in 8 years & it broke my heart that Alfa was the featured marque.
Hopefully the Concorso finds itself a decent home before next year.

Folks,
What a fantastic week again - I have just arrived back home. I took 850 pictures - a new record for me but ouy guys have covered everything except the fantastic event at the Quail Lodge and the Carmel Councours.
Quail by far was the outstanding event of the week with superb cars, food, wine and friends. The Lancias at Pebble were stunning, especially Bruce Milner's fantastic Flaminia Sport restoration (Arrived from the resto shop "just in time" on Thu in Monterey - Thanks to Pat for taking a pic with me and Adan allover the car ...), Tulius' all original Appia Sport, the fantastic Albany Airway Lambda, stunning Astura (with Castagna body) and, what I would have loved to drive, the Riva bodied Aprillia Barchetta.
The Alfas were not shabby either (Best in Show is stunning) - What, again, surprised me is the amazing level of the restorations at Pebble: They seem to get better every year and I dont want to know what they cost ...
Will try to post some pics from the Quail over th next days ...

Mike, we look forward to your posts! I've never been to the Quail show, so am excited to see what that looks like through your photos.

Hi Patrick,
Wondering if I can get a higher definition copy of one of your pictures. The picture I would like to get shows my red 1965 Giulia Veloce in the foreground exiting turn 4 at Laguna Seca. My sone is with me and we both have red caps.
Thanks,
Dennis
