1960 Morris Minor 1000 pickup was once owned by NHRA Top Fuel Champion Joe Amato. It must have been quite a different ride than the one that made him famous. Photo: J. Michael Hemsley
The Closed Italian Class seems to have included only red cars. Chris Baldwin’s 1974 Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV may not have had the exclusivity of the Ferraris in the class, but it was a beautifully preserved and often driven car.

Once again, Morgan is making its iconic 3-wheeler. It now has a modern drivetrain, but the driving experience is certainly classic, with plenty of wind in the face, engine noise and tight fit for two people. Photo: J. Michael Hemsley
Cars in the Preservation Class included the photographer’s white Giulia Super, but the Citroen 2CV Charleston took home the trophy.
