A highpoint of the L.A. area auto enthusiast's year is the "Concours on Rodeo" held yearly on Father's Day.  This highly entertaining event is fun, free, and close to your webmaster's home.  The famous Rodeo Drive shopping street between Wilshire Blvd. and Santa Monica Blvd. is closed to automotive traffic and becomes a showplace for some of the most beautiful and interesting cars in the world.  2004 was especially significant as it celebrated 50 years of Ferrari presence in the USA.  (Images below are clickable)
