A 1932 Duesenberg with Figoni bodywork won best of show at this year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. But how did the race cars fare?
One of the first prize-winners was the 1957 Ferrari 250 GT LWB Berlinetta Zagato, entered by the Herrington Collection from New Hampshire, US. This car famously came 6th overall in the 1957 Mille Miglia and second in class, and it was first GT in that year’s Mont Ventoux hill climb in France. It was a class winner at Pebble before and was now awarded the ‘most elegant sports car’ trophy.
Enzo Ferrari Trophy
The Enzo Ferrari Trophy, hotly contested in a year the firm celebrates its 75th anniversary, went to the 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB Berlinetta Scaglietti. William and Cheryl Swanson from Pebble Beach entered the car. The Pebble Beach Concours entered the recently deceased dr. Fred Simeone with the Lorin Tryon Trophy. From his collection came the wonderful Bugatti Type 57 Le Mans ‘Tank’, as raced in 1937.
The 1955 Jaguar D-Type – XKD the States – courtesy of the JSM Motorsports Collection in Redwood City, California, received the Phil Hill Cup. The Tony Hulman Trophy went to the 1933 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza from the Auriga Collection in Germany. This car also won the Alfa 8C 2300-class.
Aston Martin DB3S
The Ferrari Competition class saw Brian Ross’ 1955 Ferrari 410S LWB Scaglietti Spyder take top honours. The 1951 Ferrari 340 America Berlinetta by Vignale, entered by Jack & Kingsley Croul (California, USA), came second. In the Postwar Racing class, Scotland’s Wayne and Ruth Gray took the honours with their 1953 Aston Martin DB3S.
Pebble wanted to celebrate 100 years of Le Mans, scheduled next year. There was an early Le Mans class, where David MacNeil’s 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO came out with the most points. The late Le Mans class saw Bruce Meyer dominate with his Porsche 935 K3, the winner of Le Mans 1979. The list of Le Mans winning cars and drivers was nothing short of breathtaking.
