By Rod Burdick I had the distinct pleasure of attending the Cohasset Classic Car Concours on September 18th and can't say enough about the way that Founding Chairman Peter Brown and his support crew brought about such a warm, distinctly different and highly successful program. From my arrival (with photos taken of every car entered) to the personal placement of each competing car in well-ordered and well-marked areas, the cordial welcome by all the organizers, the extremely thorough and competent judging, extensive and delicious catered lunch, homey and convivial award ceremony at the concours's grounds, the police-escorted parade around the spectacular Cohasset coastline and beautiful residential roads, to the public viewing of cars on the Cohasset Common North Lawn, the day proceeded with seemingly effortless ease (and I think we all know the TREMENDOUS amount of work required to make things look "effortless"). The Porsche 356 club has evidently adopted this event, as they made their presence known with twelve entrants. Alfas were represented with only one entrant (yours truly), plus one owner present but not entered (Ken Buntrock from Hingham with a lovely Duetto, hopefully to be an AONE member soon) and also a later model Spider owned by one of the organizers.
I'm hoping that next year this superlative meet will get a more
significant Alfa Romeo turnout, especially in view of the fact that
the gorgeous location is in the very center of our club's
demographic area, and just the ride to it is well worthwhile.
