A once-in-a-lifetime collector car display, the RM40 Concours d’Elegance will take place at One Classic Car Drive and will feature some of the rarest and most beautiful cars in the world. Early highlights include the wild yet stunningly graceful 1937 Cadillac Series 90 Hartmann Cabriolet, measuring an imposing 22 feet in length, one of less than ten surviving models, and most recently shown at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance; and the multi-award winning 1933 Delage D8S Roadster by De Villars, one of just 99 models built, and representing the height of the Art Deco-influenced French design in the 1930s. The Cadillac and Delage were beautifully restored by the expert craftsmen at RM Auto Restoration, who have won the coveted Best of Show an unmatched six-times at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
Other Saturday event highlights include, entertainment by local act Toast & Jam and lunch options available from a variety of food trucks. A free shuttle service will also be available at RM headquarters to take attendees to and from the Downtown Chatham RetroFest and Tecumseh Park festivities.
