This weekend, a cavalcade of over 150 pre-1974 classic cars will assemble in Beverly Hills to be judged on their originality, beauty, and historical import. Held at the private estate of the eponymous Greystone Mansion, the Concours d’Elegance boasts entrants from all around the world, with equally diverse vehicles from marques as exotic as their coachwork.
