I went to the Concours d’Italia today with my son-in-law, Nick. It was full of current model Italian exotic automobiles, vintage exotics and hot Italian motorcycles. It was a small show, held at the Des Moines marina. The weather was fine; the crowd eclectic and appreciative. The exhibitors were an odd lot spending most of their time discussing the availability of this odd part, or that one, and polishing their treasures. Sometimes shows like this one will have what I have come to call “car show girls.” Not this time. But a good time was had by all anyway.

The photo below is of a 1936 Alpha Romeo.

And if you were in doubt, the bottom photo demonstrates the show was not without eye candy, a Ferrari 430 in this case.
