A multi day event for the car owners, this show was held last Saturday. It was at the Heritage Museum & Gardens in Sandwich, Massachusetts. CCCA rules kept the number of cars to a small number but each car was stunning. It wasn't overcrowded with spectators either. I'm so glad I made the drive.
The Duesenberg, Bugatti and I think the Rickenbacker are either owned by, or on loan to, the museum. The ex-Gary Cooper Duesenberg J (see my photos below) has been on display there for a very long time.
John Bono, another beautiful 1947 Cadillac!

On Fotki, use the "Roll View" feature for easiest viewing.
Fotki has image size limitations. Larger versions of these same photos can be seen on my Facebook page. You'll have to search FB using my name as I can't seem to post a link to it here.
Thanks for looking!
John

Thank you for sharing the pictures with us John. Love those beautiful Classics. My pet peeve is hearing people calling their collector car a classic when IMO it's not.

John, thanks for sharing this spectacular classic automotive event with us. All beauties, I love the '47 and the '41 Cadillac convertibles of course. Thanks again.

Oh boy, all those automobiles look magnificent and the photographs of them are superb ! That display would certainly be a field of dreams.
