\n

The 30-year old Meadow Brook Concours<\/a> rightfully celebrated American design last weekend. Among the dragsters, swoopy coupes, Packards Twelves and modern supercars were some incredible entrants.<\/p>\n

The unannounced feature of Meadow Brook could have been Packard. We counted 13 V12 cars and a Dietrich Sport Sedan won the Best of Show. The corresponding European Best of Show went to this Delahaye 165 Cabriolet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If we had to give an award for the top restoration debut it would have to be this Mercury XM-800<\/a>. As one of the few surviving Ford showcars, it was never finished with a running engine and ran on its own power for the first time this year! Furthermore, Meadow Brook marked the XM-800’s restoration debut.<\/p>\n

All these cars plus more can be found in our feature gallery<\/a> by Richard Owen and Julien Constans. Included is the RM Auction which sold several of the best American cars and made a splendid addition to the Concours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
