The 12th running of the all-are-welcome show made everyone happy.
“55 classes, that’s a lot of action, that’s a lot going on here,” said San Marino Classic Chairman Aaron Weiss. “And then we have the VIP thing , and we have 50 vendor tents, it’s a circus.”And a circus is always fun. One interesting thing about San Marino is they take just about anyone who wants to be in the show. There’s something like 14-and-a-half acres of park to park on, like the old car sales TV commercial, “We’ve got acres and acres of cars.
“There’s such a wide variety of cars here,” Weiss said. “I think diversity and inclusion, not only with the cars, but across the board in all categories, is really important. And I would say that I went out of my way to accomplish that.”“I think we took 99% of the cars that applied. I mean, it wasn’t like we’re sitting there looking for reasons not to let them in. We’re trying to raise money for the charities . This is a volume business.
But, while there was the guy with the Zimmer who comes every year, there were also cars worthy of entering any of the best shows in the world.“We've got the Academy of Art University of San Francisco , about a dozen cars that came down from Pebble Beach, and“So, in those terms, I think we have some things that people just don’t see very often. And those are really nice cars.
“I’m very fortunate to have found the car pretty much in the condition it’s in,” said Ray Kinney. “A good friend in Ft. Worth did a retouch on it and so forth. So it’s won the Arizona Concours Best in Show, and this is second time we’ve shown it since then. So we’re batting 1000. We’re so happy.”The car belonged to director George Sidney, who bought it new in 1947 after he’d done the Frank Sinatra/Gene Kelly musical,“He used to drive this car up and down Hollywood Boulevard,” Kinney said.
