Event Planner: Daryl K Williams
If you love looking at special cars, you must plan to attend the Hilton Head Island Concours d’Elegance in its fourth year in the new venue at Port Royal Golf Club adjacent to Port Royal Plantation.
While there are events all week, for many of us the real action begins on Saturday with the car club displays. Area car clubs are invited to show off their special cars, the Motoring Midway will display items of interest including antique boats and planes well as the cars of an Honored Collector and recipient of the Pinnacle Award. This year’s honored collector is Jeff Lane, and will showcase six cars from the Lane Motor Museum ( Nashville, TN); a 1932 Helicron, a 1933 Dymaxion Replica, a 1938 Tatr T-97, a 1948 Larmar, a 1952 Citroën Cogolin and a 1965 Matra Djet5. And for the Pinacle Award, This year Miles Collier has been selected, and will showcase three cars from the Collier Collection at The Revs Institute® ( Naples, FL); a 1896 PANHARD & LEVASSOR Wagonette, a 1935 Duesenberg SSJ and a 1960 Porsche RS-60.
Saturday night we will meet at The Old Oyster Factory at 6PM for dinner. We will order off the menu and will be able to have separate checks. There is no fee for this event but we do need reservations from you so the restaurant will be ready for us. Since this event is not subsidized by our section feel free to register non members as your guests.
