Best In Show concorso italiano 2008

The Ecurie Ecrappe / Autodenta 1971 Alfa Romeo Spider. Based on the crowd pull, this was one of the most popular cars on the tarmac. New features include hand brushed paint, a further truncated tail section and a 1957 Giulietta nose. Reactions below:

When we pulled up, the guy with the white Duetto on the left loudly complained about having to park next to a piece of junk. It's funny how the crowds never moved over to look at his car. It's probably because he wasn't giving away 24Hours of LeMons swag...

The radiator mounting is a conversation starter.

Maybe it was the plate that drew them in.

It's funny, but young kids don't get it. "Why would you show that? It's dented!"

That's why.

Here's Wes Conklin's 24Hours of LeMons surviving Alfetta. It's a close second in patina, and would take class honors if hardtuned was judging the show.

There's more concorso than a couple of wrecks... click this
