TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., August 15, 2022 – The Concours d’Lemons, a tongue in cheek send up of fancy concours that features the oddball, mundane and truly awful of the automotive world, returns to let some of the air out of Monterey car week on Aug. 20, 2022, 8 a.m.–1:30 p.m. at Seaside City Hall, (440 Harcourt Ave. Seaside, CA.) Participants will show off their hooptie cars to automotive fans while bribery prone celebrity judges award thrift store sourced trophies in hilarious categories such as “Rust Belt American Junk”, “Most Dangerous” and “Best Back Seat.” The whole debacle culminates in the presentation of the coveted “Worst of Show” trophy that sees the owner and car showered in silly string.

“You don’t have to be a millionaire or billionaire to enjoy displaying your automobile,” said the Concours d’Lemons self-appointed “Head Gasket” Alan Galbraith. “It isn’t about spending the most money on a car, it is about having fun with your terrible car.”

Produced by the automotive enthusiast lifestyle brand Hagerty, the Concours d’Lemons California is in its thirteenth oil dripping year and is sponsored by Classic Motorsports Magazine and Griot’s Garage car care products.
