The Cars of Brumos Racing will be celebrated at the 2017 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, scheduled for March 10-12 at the Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island in Florida.<\/p>\n

From its founding on September 1, 1959 Brumos Porsche Car Corp (later Brumos Porsche) represented the legendary Stuttgart marque in North America winning 15 major championships plus the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring multiple times.<\/p>\n

On April 1, 2016 the world-famous Brumos name — a contraction of “Brundage Motors” — concluded operations<\/a> as retail automobile dealerships. Brumos Porsche Dealer Principal Dan Davis retained the legendary name and the cars of the Jacksonville-based Brumos Collection.<\/p>\n

“This is a meaningful way to salute Peter, Hurley, Jack Atkinson and Bob Snodgrass as well as all the drivers and crew members who made Brumos #59 so successful in racing through seven decades,” said Dan Davis, “I’m honored to have been part of Brumos for the last 25 years and appreciate the effort and dedication of our people who support Brumos racing.”<\/p>\n

New headquarters for the Brumos Collection will open in Jacksonville during 2017. The purpose-built museum will house the vast collection of memorabilia and many of the cars that will be featured at Amelia in 2017: Brumos’ first IMSA GT Champion, Trans-Am Champion 911, Can-Am Porsche 917 Turbo, Turbo 935 IMSA GT Champion and many more including the cars raced by Brumos’ own and 1998 Amelia Honoree Hurley Haywood, Peter Gregg, 2017 Amelia Honoree Al Unser, Sr, AJ Foyt, 2016 Amelia Honoree and Le Mans winner Hans Stuck plus a fleet of famous racing Porsche from the 1970s through today.<\/p>\n

“For many of us Brumos’ red and blue stripes are the colors of our home town team,” said Bill Warner, founder and Chairman of the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance. “Like Gulf’s immortal blue and orange, and Martini Racing’s stripes, Brumos’ iconic white-red-and-blue livery is instantly recognizable to millions of sports car fans around the world. Brumos Racing lives.”<\/p>\n
