Rob Fisher of the Hillsborough Concours d'Elegance

This week Randy hosts Rob Fisher (@Acecaracer on BaT),  chairman of the foundation behind the Hillsborough Concours d'Elegance, who claims the mantle of longest continually running concours in the world.  BaT will be sponsoring and joining the 70th annual running of this three-day event, culminating  June 28 at Crystal Springs Golf Course in Burlingame. Discount alert! The first 200 people to buy their tickets for Sunday, June 28 on the Hillsborough Concours website using the code  BAT26 get $10 off the ticket price!

Randy and Rob talk about having a 250 GTO and a Wienermobile in the same show; the Concours' all-volunteer organization; featuring the  hundredth anniversary of Mercedes-Benz with a  1939 540K Special Roadster from the Keller Collection; the increased difficulties in getting pre-war halo cars to a venue; the charities that benefit from the proceeds of the event; the origins of the show as a community gathering with guests like Bing Crosby and Abigail van Buren; the turmoil of big changes in 2009, and the evolution since. They leave time to talk about Rob's discovery of BaT, some of the cars he's bought and sold here, and transporting important cars to Moscone Center through San Francisco's less-than-stellar neighborhoods in the wee hours.
