Concours d’Lemons Monterey

The Concours d’Lemons Monterey 2023 is Saturday from 8am to 2pm at the Seaside City Hall, 440 Harcourt Avenue.

The Concours d’Lemons returns! An oil stain on the face of Monterey Auto Week, hoopties of all description will rattle and clatter their way to Seaside City Hall where they will be subjected to capricious celebrity judges and adoring fans. Thrift store sourced trophies will be awarded to cars in classes such as, Rust Belt American Junk, Needlessly Complex Italian and Most Dangerous. The show culminates in the presentation of the Worst of Show trophy and a car care gift pack from Griot’s Garage, the only car care products on the planet good enough to make these hoopties look nice. Classic Motorsports Magazine will be on hand to document the stupidity. The whole debacle is brought to you by Hagerty, so blame them.
