Report and photos by Art Evans
\n\"\"<\/a>The Palos Verdes Concours d\u2019Elegance 2011 was held September 18th at the Trump National Golf Club in Palos Verdes, California.
\nThe Palos Verdes is arguably the premier Concours in Southern California. It stands out among the many others in the area due to its unmatched location on the beautiful Palos Verdes Peninsula.
\nThe September 18, 2011 event was the nineteenth for Palos Verdes. As it has for the previous five years, the setting was the spectacular Trump National Golf Course overlooking the Pacific with Catalina Island in the background. On one of the previous nineteen\u2014I can\u2019t remember which one\u2014I entered my 1958 Devin SS. The winner in my group was\u2014unknown to the judges, I guess\u2014a replica! I talked with some of this year\u2019s judges and found the breed much improved since then.
\nIn examining the event program, it was obvious that staging a concours of this stature is complex and labor-intensive. Although I have been involved in organizing a number of motorsports events, the only time I chaired a concours was in 1954. Since then, whenever I get the urge to do it again, I lie down and wait for the urge to go away. I was lucky that time because my friend Ernie McAfee provided essential guidance.
\nThe Palos Verdes Concours d’Elegance 2011 was a three-day happening. Chairman Peter Kunoth hoped that \u201call had a great time enjoying the festivities of cars, art and food.\u201d (Afterwards, Peter\u2014who is to be complimented for the job he did\u2014told me that he will return as next-year\u2019s chair and that mega-French-car collector Peter Mullin will be the Grand Marshal). Things got started on Friday the 16th with a Grand Marshal Reception. On Saturday there was a \u201cTour d\u2019Epicure Road Rallye\u201d followed by a \u201cBistro D\u2019Elegance.\u201d The Concours itself was, of course, on Sunday.
\nA total of 57 judges were on hand to evaluate the more than 200 cars displayed on the magnificent golf course plus an exhibition of IndyCars to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 500. One even had its driver with it. Parnelli Jones\u2014a Palos Verdes resident\u2014brought his 1963 winner from his extensive and unique personal collection. The Riverside Museum showed one of Dan Gurney\u2019s Eagles. And Sam Hank\u2019s seldom-seen 1957 winner was there too. In addition to the working judges, there were 15 “Honorary Judges” including my friends, Bob Bondurant, Parnelli Jones and Bill Krause.
\nSince I\u2019m 77, my nine-year-old grandson, Austin, was my assistant. After entering (and receiving our press passes), we had to walk past a plethora of vendors. The program listed 21, but I\u2019m sure there were many more. I couldn\u2019t resist and bought a unique hat for which I had been looking. The cars were displayed in groups located on various parts of the golf course. Viewing the entirety involved some serious walking.
\nEntrants were grouped in 22 different classes. Of particular interest to me were two for Howard \u201cDutch\u201d Darrin\u2019s creations, one of them just for Packards. (Of interest because I ran across Dutch a few times during the fifties). The other class had six Kaiser-Darrin sports cars, the most I have ever seen together at one time. I remember that one of the few times a Kaiser-Darrin raced was at Palm Springs in March 1955. Dutch entered Frank Sinatra\u2019s nephew, Ray, in the main event and Maxine Elmer in the ladies. (Maxine married Briggs Cunningham in 1962 and became known as Laura; Maxine is her middle name). First came the Ladies Race. Maxine told me about it afterwards in the pits: \u201cAt the start, I really stood on it. But when I came to the first turn, it wouldn\u2019t stop. No brakes at all!\u201d It turned out someone had forgotten to add brake fluid. Ray also had a problem in Turn One; he got on his head. Fortunately\u2014and unlike the car\u2014he sustained only minor injuries.
\nAmong the large assemblage of sports cars, there were two classes for Shelbys, one for sixties Cobras, the other for pre-1970 Mustangs. There were 14 Cobras and 13 Mustangs. One of the Cobras was a rare Daytona Coupe belonging to Los Angeles County Judge Joe DiLoreto. Joe told me he is the first owner and that Carroll sold it to him personally. Daytonas are the rarest of Cobras. During the early sixties, Cobra roadsters were winning everywhere…except Le Mans. The roadsters couldn\u2019t achieve the necessary top speed, so Shelby assigned Peter Brock to design a coupe version. That did the trick. The first time out, driven by Davey MacDonald and Bob Holbert, it won the 1964 24 Hours of Daytona, hence its name.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
I introduced my grandson assistant, Austin, to my long-time buddy, Bob Bondurant.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There were eight 1964 Cobras in class XIV: Shelby Cobras (1962-1967). Honorary Judge Bob Bondurant drove for Shelby in 1964. He went to Europe with the team to compete for the World Manufacturers Championship. With co-driver Dan Gurney, he was fourth overall that year at Le Mans and won the GT category in a Daytona. The next year, he won ten races and helped bag the championship for Ford and Shelby. (Much to the delight of Henry Ford II\u2014the Deuce\u2014who was not fond of Enzo Ferrari). Bob and I worked together and raced against each other during the fifties. We are lifelong friends.
\nOne of the GT350s was entered by Christi Edelbrock, daughter of Vic Jr. and granddaughter of Vic Sr. Joe DiLoreto and Christi vintage race their Shelbys, so they are to be complimented as it\u2019s quite a chore to both race and show the same car. (As an aside, Carroll, himself, was not on hand as he usually is for this event. He was attending the air races in Reno, seated rather close by in the VIP grandstand when the horrendous accident took place. Fortunately he escaped injury).
\nAn unusual class was for pre-1973 Japanese Sports Cars. Thirteen cars were on display including two 2000GT Toyotas from the nearby Toyota USA Auto Museum. The GTs reminded me that Toyota contracted with Shelby to campaign two cars in 1968 SCCA C-Production. My friends, Scooter Patrick and Davey Jordan were the drivers. Scooter ended up third in the Southern Pacific Division with Davey fourth. Scooter placed fourth in the National Runoffs, not bad for a first season. Nevertheless, Toyota didn\u2019t renew for 1969. Shelby told me the reason was that Toyota wanted to win and the team had failed to do so.
\nThere were two 1965 S600 Hondas, one a roadster, the other a coupe. As I have mentioned, Bill Krause was on hand as an honorary judge. I remembered that my neighbor Bill was a Honda dealer back then. His shop was in Inglewood, a suburb of Los Angeles. Initially, he was a motorcycle dealer, but when Honda started to manufacture cars, he was among the first ten dealers in the U.S. One time I thought about buying one so Bill gave me a test drive. (I didn\u2019t buy it).
\nI was pleased to see that there was one of the early Cobras\u2014a 1962\u2014entered by Steve Beck. Krause was Shelby\u2019s test driver in 1962 and drove Cobra\u2019s first race at Riverside on October 13 of that year. Bill had a huge lead, but near the end, a rear hub-carrier broke and he had to retire. He went with Shelby\u2019s team to the Nassau Speed Week that December. He ran second in the Tourist Trophy and third in the Governor\u2019s Cup, but in both races he was sidelined with mechanical troubles. These races demonstrated that Cobras had world-beater potential if Shelby could achieve reliability. The next year, he hired Ken Miles and the rest is history.
\nDuring the day, my assistant, Austin, got hungry. I had expected to find numerous gourmet food stands, perhaps in the nature of the Quail Motorsports Gathering during the Monterey Car Week. There was a long line at a stand serving alcoholic beverages, but we found only one for food. The Trump clubhouse was open for its usual Sunday buffet, but I thought it a bit pricey and we weren\u2019t that<\/em> hungry. So we settled for chips and sodas from the stand.
\nI want to apologize to my readers if this isn\u2019t the normal Concours article. Being unfamiliar with the genre\u2014this is my first\u2014it\u2019s the best I could do. As some of you know, my orientation is toward people rather than technology. Of course there was lots more going on that I haven\u2019t touched on. This was the first time I had attended a Concours in some years. When I have gone to Pebble Beach, I spent my time in the Mercedes-Benz pavilion partaking of food and wine. At any rate, Austin and I enjoyed our day. The best part was spending time with old friends and making a few new ones.<\/p>\n
