Once a year, in mid-August, on the Monterey Bay Peninsula in Northern, California, an automotive pilgrimage happens that’s unlike any other. It’s where enthusiasts the world over travel to experience some of the best automobiles on the planet in a setting that is nothing short of breathtaking. Its origins date back to the 1950s, and over the last 70 years, the event has grown into a bucket list item for all who enjoy the automobile. This is Monterey Car Week, and on this episode of the Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ podcast, host Mike Musto sits down with Legendary Auto Sports founder, Troy Macias (both of whom have just returned from the 2023 event), to talk about the week’s adventures, and how the event has evolved to embrace the ever-changing automotive landscape of the 21st century.
