The 19th Annual Greenwich Concours d’Elegance drew an entry of 275 cars and a crowd of more than 20,000 to Roger Sherman Baldwin Park on the Connecticut city’s waterfront, May 31-June 1. The event, benefiting AmeriCares, is split into two days, with domestic cars featured on the Saturday and Sunday’s focus on imports, and therefore selects two Best of Show winners. This year those honors went to Sonny and Joan Abagnale for their 1935 Duesenberg SJ562 Dual-Cowl Phaeton in Concours Americana, and Judge Joseph and Margie Cassini III for their 1930 Minerva AL Cabriolet in Concours International.
Other notable category winners included: “People’s Choice” to Charles Gillet’s 1931 Cadillac 452A All-Weather Phaeton; “Grand Marshall’s Award” to Richard Kocka’s 1958 Pegaso Z 103; “Chief Judge’s Award” to Naif Makol’s 1956 Continental Mark II Two-Door Hardtop; and the “Chairman’s Choice” to William King’s 1939 Delage D6.
