Westport, Connecticut –

A 1963 Corvette and a 1938 Tatra were the principal winners in Sunday’s Fairfield County Concours d’Elegance, staged for the second time on the spacious grounds of the Fairfield County Hunt Club.

The Corvette, owned by Michael Schudroff of nearby Greenwich, and the Czech Tatra, T77a brought from Toronto by John Long, were awarded what the Concours called a “Grand Prix d’Honneur,” one of which was given to the best domestic entry and one to the best foreign-built vehicle. In the case of the Tatra, it was fortunate the award did not include the word “elegance.”

The event drew a 200-car field and a healthy crowd.

   In the wake of the Model T reaching its centenary I wanted to make sure that the fact that the Morgan Car Company was turning 100 next year (2009) was on your radar screen. This utterly unique company is still in the Morgan family. still makes cars by hand in Malvern, England on an ash wood frame just like it has always done and is still making its famous 4/4 to the same basic design it introduced in 1936. This is the car that would eventually replace the three-wheeler which made it famous in its early years.

With both the Woodward Dream Cruise and Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance festivities having taken place this past weekend, we want to know: What is your favorite type of classic car event? Is it historic racing, a particular concours event, a swap meet, or just a cruise-in at your local ice cream shop? Recount your favorites in ‘Comments.’
