Concours d\u2019LeMons takes place on the heavily goose-pooped grass at Laguna Grande Park in Monterey, fitting for an event honoring so many turds. The free show is a celebration of \u201cthe oddball, mundane and truly awful of the automotive world,\u201d is the perfect lighthearted complement to a weekend full of all-too-serious car business.<\/span><\/p>\n From Yugos to Panhards, DKWs to Mercury Lynx LN7s, fire-damaged Lincoln limos to swiss cheese Karmann Ghias, you\u2019re guaranteed to come away with a smile and a headache when all is said and done. Alan Galbraith, who delivers the perfect blend of snark and sarcasm in his presentation, emcees the Concours along with Tim Suddard of Grassroots Motorsports<\/em>, the perfect baritone color man.<\/span><\/p>\n The winner of this year\u2019s highly coveted Worst in Show was a 1974 Bricklin, fully prepped for competition in the 24 Hours of LeMons series under the \u201cHella Shitty Racing\u201d livery. On the dais, Galbraith asked the owner of the gullwing car what would happen in the event of a rollover on the track. \u201cYou\u2019d die,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhat a way to cap this all off,\u201d Galbraith said. \u201cAnd what a letdown. Thanks for bringing it out. Now get it out of here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Other winners included an MG Midget limousine with no powertrain (Most Unsafe) and a 1972 Ford Country Squire wagon on a \u201960s F250 dually pickup chassis \u2014 perhaps too cool for LeMons but a sight nonetheless (Rustbelt American Junk). A Volvo Amazon wagon took home the Swedish Meatball award, with lingonberries, Swedish Fish and pickled herring as the prize. \u201cThis is the result of bad credit,\u201d Suddard said.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
