Gooding and Company Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance is one of the most fun weekends of the year!  It begins with the two day Gooding & Company auctions.  This year Gooding sold the most valuable pre-war car in world auction history (1935 Duesenberg SSJ for $22 million) and achieved more than $116 in the two days of sales at the 15th annual Pebble Beach Auctions!  A highlight of the event was the special parking out front for one of the most valuable cars in the world…the Ferrari 250 GTO series 1 :

After the auctions, it’s time for the Concours on the 18th lawn of Pebble Beach.  First up is passing by the concept lawn.  Always fun to see and daydream about:

Next up…people watching!

Here are some sights from around the Concours, converted to my favorite timeless black and white view…
