Description

They’re the outcasts and the unloved. Those automobiles that even when new, were relegated to the “less than desirable list”. We’re talking about cars like the AMC Matador, Pontiac Aztek, Plymouth Breeze and the Reliant K cars from Chrysler (to name a few). One undeniable fact however is that these cars were at one point purchased new and loved by their owners, and in some cases, they’ve even developed a fan base.   Alan Galbraith recognized this, then took it upon himself to create Concours d’Lemons, a show that celebrates the odd, unwanted and the unreliable, and the people who love them. On this episode of the Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ, Alan walks us through the genesis of the Concours and how it came to find a place alongside some of the most exclusive automotive events in the world.

Dan Stoner and Mike Musto have been in this business for quite some time. Stoner comes from the world of big advertising and publishing before coming to Hemmings, while Musto made a name for himself as an automotive journalist and show creator. What do they have in common? Well, everything and nothing. They’ve got different tastes in cars and are both jealous of each other’s grooming habits, YET, they both love everything automotive culture has to offer. Thus, an idea was hatched, and The Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ was born!
