A Real Cool Concours

Filed in archive Concours by Philip Powell on May 29, 2007

Classy Chassis

This promises to be the coolest concours of the year, if only because it is held in an air-conditioned stadium. But wait, there's more! Houston's Classy Chassis, a one-day affair in the Reliant Stadium, promises 100 magnificent classics from all eras will be on show. Among those rare automobiles will be a 1930 Rolls-Royce from the Nethercutt Collection, winner of Best in Show at a Pebble Beach Concours D'Elegance; Actor Steve McQueen's Jaguar XKSS from the Petersen Automotive Museum, one of just 16 built; the Chapparal 2 designed by Jim Hall, winner of 22 of 29 races entered; several multi-million dollar Ferrari racers from the 50's and 60's rarely seen in a public forum. 100% of the net proceeds from this fourth annual Classy Chassis will benefit the United Cerebral Palsy of Greater Houstonlinks. Show day is June 10th and for the residents of America's 4th-largest city, should be a lucky day, indeed.
