18 | Galleria Monterey | Concours on the Avenue Carmel by the Sea, CA - August 11, 2015 Keith Bluemel Keith Bluemel On Tuesday, August 11, was held the kick-off event of Monterey week, the now fabled Concurs on the Avenue in Carmel by the Sea. Its name is descriptive but it now stretches further along the avenue and up several side streets, such is the draw of the event, in both people and cars. Ferrari content varies year by year but there are always good ones on hand. |
20 | Galleria Monterey | The Quail - A Motorsports Gathering Quail Lodge, Carmel Valley, CA - August 14th, 2015 Marcel Massini Peter SInghof, Cavallino Staff On Friday, August 14th at the Quail Lodge and Golf Course in Carmel Valley, California, was the Quail, and in ten years it has become a must-do event for people who appreciate beautiful automobiles in a quiet and very personalized setting. 3,000 attendeees only makes for a fine cozy affair, with music, good food and drinks all day long to accompany the cars. Since Monterey this year in 2015 was the big Ferrari weekend, The Quail was focused on what many consider the non plus ultra of the Ferrari world - the Coachbuilt Ferraris. |

24 | Galleria Monterey | Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance Pebble Beach, CA - August 16, 2015 Marcel Massini, Chris Current Denis Tanney, Steve Burton Sunday, August 16th, was the climax of the week for most enthusiasts because it was the day of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, which celebrated its 65th anniversary this years. Automobiles from all over the world gathered on the 18th fairway of the Pebble Beach Golf Course to content for the title of Best of Show, at the most competitive event in the collector car world. |
25 | Galleria Monterey | Pebble Beach Road Races Del Monte Forest, Pebble Beach, CA - August 14, 2015 Ron Kimball Because it was a Ferrari year in Monterey, the organizers of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Sandra Button and crew, had the excellent idea of having a special display of many of the actual Ferraris that took part in the original Pebble Beach road races, which ran on a course of roads through the Del Monte forest in the 1950s. They expanded the idea and actually had seven of those Ferraris brought back for a re-enactment of the races, and over the very same roads. |
26 | Galleria Monterey | Monterey Motorsports Reunion Laguna Seca, CA - August 13-16, 2015 Denis Tanney, Peter Singhof The Monterey Motorsports Reunion was held from August 14 to 16 and while it didn't neccessarily highlight Ferrari in this Ferrari year, it did have many Ferraris on track, and even more to be seen in the huge paddock. Laguna Seca is a glamorous track, and easily draws the best of historic racers to this once-a-year event. |
28 | Galleria Monterey | Ferrari Club of America International Meet Nicklaus Golf Club, Monterey, CA - August 17, 2015 Chris Current, Pat Current Peter Singhof Monday through Wednesday, August 17-19, was the 2015 Ferrari Club of America Annual Meet, and this year it was a big one with Ferraris everywhere, on the two Tours, at the Laguna Seca Racetrack, and here at the Concours, with 250 Ferraris entered. Total entries were astounding, with many new and old Ferraris great to see. |
30 | Galleria Monterey | Casa Ferrari Carmel Case Ferrari Carmel, CA - August 13-16, 2015 Morgan Theys, Hugo Garritsen Since this was a Ferrari year in Monterey, Ferrari was determined to have a large presence, but they were also determined to forsake the tried & true and offer some things that were unique to entertain their customers. One was the pop-up Casa Ferrari Carmel, a stage set of Italian culture created in an old Carmel gas station and surrounding buildings, that fortuantely already had a Mediterranean flavor. On each of four days, an old and rare Ferrari was on display, heralding Ferrari's history and the role Ferrari Classiche now plays in that. |

Delivered in Swaters' custom shade of yellow with a red racing stripe, s/n 0724 TR was displayed the following month during the Brussels Motor Show. Following its brief career as a show car, s/n 0724 TR saw its first competition action a couple weeks later when Belgian driver Willy Mairesse drove it to a seventh overall finish at the Eater Monday Sussex Trophy in Goodwood. |
48 | Feature | Intermezzo 1519 GT An interim lost & found again Cavallino Staff Courtesy Mauriche Louche Archive, Massimo Trenti, Peter Singhof, AG, Dave Nicholas The 250 long wheelbase series models, begun in 1956 and succeeding successfully through to 1959, were beginning to show their age by late 1958 - early 1959, as race car technology, even for GT cars, even even by the relatively primitive standards of the day, was evolving. As a consequence, Ferrari was working on a short wheelbase version of the 250 GT, which would not be ready, however, until late in 1959. So for the spring and summer of 1959, the long wheelbase 250 GT had to be used. |
