Palo Alto Concours d'Elegance 2002
The 36th Annual Palo Alto Conccours d'Elegance was again held on the
Stanford Campus Sunday, June 23, 2002. The featured marks were
Cadillac on their 100th anniversary and Alfa Romeo.
As usual there where some extraorginary Porsches that caught my eye,
but the Alfa's were of interest to me also because back in the 60's I
owned a bright red Alfa Guliette Spyder for a
few years. I remember that car with great fondness.
