There is a very cool car show in KC every year called the Art of the Concours Car. It takes place at the Kansas City Art Institute, and raises money for the school. Getting in cost $10 and is well worth it.

I finally went this year after always being out of town before. Here are some pics of some favorites. Really the best cars of KC, excluding newer exotica which frankly in my mind has become so ubiquitous its boring to look at anyway.

I went with my boy Saturday. It really was impressive. There was some stuff there I never thought I'd see, and a few I'd never heard of. Shame it was so ungodly hot Saturday.

What is the red car, second pic from the top? Some sort of AC or Jensen?

AC Bristol, I believe.

Its an AC Aceca, the coupe version of the Ace, and quite a stunner. My favorite was the 330, talked to the owner a bit. There's another one in town that is red, but I think I like the color on this one better.
