From the Simeone Museum Patterson Gallery.

“Robert Manzon Winning” honors a defining moment in French racing history. Alfredo De La Maria’s painting captures the energy and emotion of the 1952 Prix de Monte Carlo and brings viewers into the heart of the action.

1954 Ferrari 375 Mille Miglia

The audience chose the Ferrari 375 MM as their Mille Miglia champion, and it returns to the spotlight tomorrow at our People’s Choice Demo Day. The day begins at 11:15 AM.

Made for a thousand demanding miles, it balanced power with staying power.

1964 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe

The audience selected the Cobra Daytona Coupe as their Sebring champion, and it steps forward on November 29 at People’s Choice Demo Day. The day begins at 11:15 AM. This is the car that proved American ingenuity could outrun Europe’s best.
November 25, 2025 at 11:26 PM
1970 Porsche 917 LH

The audience crowned the 917 LH their Nürburgring champion, and now it returns to the spotlight on November 29 at People’s Choice Demo Day. The day begins at 11:15 AM. We rarely bring this long-tail Porsche out, and when we do it changes the tone of the entire space.

1954 Chevrolet Pickup

Chevrolet’s Advanced Design pickups were built from 1947 to 1955, with 1954 bringing a one piece windshield, round tail lights, a crossbar grille, and updated sixes. This truck adds a dropped tube front end, dual carbs and exhaust, custom interior, and custom wood bed.

1988 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

The C4 Corvette introduced a new chassis and GM’s “uniframe” structure, moving away from body on frame construction. This example wears a Greenwood aero kit and runs a 427 ci Dart small block with 11:1 compression, long tube headers, and a 150 hp wet nitrous system.

1970 Ford Boss 429 Mustang

The Z/28 delivered impressive performance for street use, though additional modifications were required for competitive racing. This example remains a true survivor with only 52,000 miles, retaining the character and specifications that defined the first generation Z/28.
November 21, 2025 at 12:45 PM
2004 Mercury Grand Marquis

The Mercury Grand Marquis ran from 1975 to 2011 as Mercury’s full size body on frame sedan. This one has been gutted and fitted with 200 treadwear tires for autocross, turning a former retirement car into an unexpected performance build.
