2010 Kansas City Art of the Car Concours. Part 2: Pre-war Classics. See pictures from the show.

Yesterday, we had a look at several of the great late-1940s-1960s cars that were on display at the 2010 Art of the Car Concours event, which was held last weekend at the Kansas City Art Institute. And if you thought those were nice cars, hang on. Because today, we’re getting into the big, pre-war Classics—Packards, Cords, Pierce Arrows, and Auburns, to name a few. These are the kind of cars people think about when they hear the word “Concours”. We’re talking about serious machines here; the cars you might expect to see on the lawn at Pebble Beach.

The Mac-Daddy of the event had to be the 1919 Pierce Arrow limousine that was used by President Woodrow Wilson. This gargantuan would dwarf, say, a Chevy Suburban, but still manages to ooze style from every pore.
