The Aurelia is from Santo Spadaro\u2019s collection, where it is joined by one of only 199 1958 Alfa Giulietta Sprint Veloces ever produced (above, Chris Wraight photo courtesy of Caffeine &amp; Carburetors), which now enjoys life as a VSCCA racecar in vintage competition at Watkins Glen, Lime Rock and the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix in Schenley Park, among others.<\/p>\n<p>Caffeine &amp; Carburetors is held four times a year in New Canaan, twice on Downtown\u2019s Pine and Elm Streets, and twice at the Town\u2019s Waveny Park. This year\u2019s schedule will bring \u201cMunich Fest: The Ultimate BMW Gathering\u201d to Waveny Park on June 17. The All-Original Sole Survivors Show of barn finds and family-legacy cars will be the center of attention on September 16 at Pine and Elm, while \u201cGatsby at Waveny: \u201820s and \u201830s Grand Classics\u201d will be featured on October 21 at Waveny Park.The four annual events draw upward of 1,500 vehicles and 5,000 visitors each to this New York City suburb.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2008 by Doug Zumbach, Peter Bush and Todd Brown, and based on Zumbach\u2019s similar 1995 program, Caffeine &amp; Carburetors sparked the ubiquitous proliferation of similar shows nationwide.
