The Bridge + Cars and Coffee
 

Hi All,

This past weekend was the 3rd annual Bridge-Orama show at the former site of the Bridgehampton Race Circuit [now it is converted to an exclusive golf club].

Since the show's inception, I have been a part of bringing high quality American cars to the show which is largely preserved a racetrack - the approach drive up to the infamous Chevron Gasolines 'Bridge' remains, along with Mobile 1 pegasus signs and a healthy display of car art by Richard Prince.

Let me preface this post and share the exotic car display is approximately 10x larger than the American display but hats off... where on earth can you see three 1987 Porsche 595s next to a '71 Ferrari Daytona, adjacent to four original Dinos, across from a frame off VW big window bus, not far from a new Bugatti and a handful of Pagani's. Mind-numbing. Saturday is invite only. There is a VIP dinner on Friday evening with displays from top sponsors - Richard Mille, Douglass Ellman, Rolls Royces, Net Jets and many more.

The American stuff was incredible too though...

I want to send a special thanks to Adam Tuckman and his father Monty for displaying their 1970 Baldwin Motion Phase III Chevelle. It is always a pleasure to catch up Adam!

On Sunday there is a Cars and Coffee event in Bridgehampton which is open to the public. I had the pleasure of seeing our Mr. 'SYC' Steve Shauger, his good friend Mark Leib. Steve brought his HO 1969 Z28 (stunning example) and Mark drove [emphasis on drove] his Ralley Green 1969 Yenko Camaro with OEM motor. Another nice treat was meeting my girlfriend's parent's friend Zack. He owns a wonderful '87 Buick GNX with only 1700 original miles still on OEM tires.

Many photos to follow.

Enjoy,
Dan
