Great video coverage of this year's Quail! The caliber of Ferraris they had in the Great Ferraris class this year was the best I have probably ever seen at Quail. It was an honor to be able to display my Giallo Modena 458 and be included with these amazing, historic Ferraris. It was great chatting with you at the event.
Another cool video, thanks. I went to this event the first few years they did it and then about 17 years ago, my girlfriend and I took the day off work and drove down to Monterey to see the Quail only to find out they had switched to only selling tickets before event with no tickets available the day of. Haven't been back since, now save my dollars for Pebble Beach / Laguna Seca. Will enjoy your videos instead!
Oops, forgot to comment. Wanted to go to The Quail this year but didn't recycle enough cans to come up with the quiche! Next year I'm asking Richard for a loan! Thanks Richard, another great vid!
Excellent erudition and fine filming of automotive jewellery, Richard. So much to like, it's tricky to be picky, but the unrestored SS100, the epitome of pre-war sports cars, works its magic, surprisingly surpassing the restored iteration. Then there was the overlooked DB4, the design precursor of all subsequent Aston Martins, with its superb simple, elegant lines and perfection of proportions. And the tour ended with second, loving look at chassis number four. How can the eye not be ravished by this E-Type, where every view, every angle is captivating? Enzo was right, and amongst the plethora of Ferraris there are some that get close to, but not quite touching the Maestro's declaration of the beauty of the Jaguar. Thanks Richard - you made my day.
You sir have most resoundingly proven that contrary to popular modern day cultural beliefs, gorgeous cars and beautiful women are not as rare as the world would have us believe. Nicely done !
Hi Richard! In the 60ties and 70ties the best cars was built 👍. They are all wonderful. An another fine and special video from you. Best regards from Hans and Cheers 🍻🇦🇹..
RMO - thanks for your effort here at the Quail - Most enjoyable ! I would add - LUV the comments from the oh so willing/proud owners - please chat them up for additional color commentary/insights (e.g. the fella with the Delahaye) - I could listen for hours ! Grateful !
Thank you for taking us there! What a treat! Lots of One-OFF prototypes too. (A suggestion if I may: Have some one help you with pronunciation, esp. Italian.)
Richard, the Morgan F4 reg DFV 439 , was a Blackpool . Lancashire registered car. so would have been running around Blackpool & Fylde and may have been seen by William Lyons or William Walmsley. Great video coverage, your arm must have been aching by the end.
Love the homage to 50's car shows, with the pretty girls in front of the cars in the beginning would love to watch you setting that up... my wife was calling me to walk the whippets with her, and I had to call out "I'm with Richard right now at a car show."
Why does everyone skip the Kellison? There’s a whole group of California car builders from the 50s and 60s that were doing beautiful bodies and they never get acknowledged.
Hi Richard . Willy Wonka' Chocolate Factory on steriods ! Like yourself l'm not a fan of these "continuation " cars . The "e "type appeared to be in Opalescent Golden Sand . And my favourite has to be that Alfa Romeo 1900 C .......beautiful ! Thank you Richard .
Excellent presentation, but you skipped the TR! 😱 There is just too much to see that you can’t see it all. I’ve never been to the Quail. Maybe next year. I’ll sell a kidney. Lol
How to wreck the looks of an E-Type Coupé (the é is pronounced on European models. American designs may well be associated with chicken homes), putting dreadful white wall tyres on such a sleek design.
37:20 "Awkwardness of the rear fins" is putting it mildly. Looks like Chuck Barris, or Gene Winfield got their hands on this ill fated Ferrari and had their way with it, if you know what I mean. Desecrating what surely would've been a voluptuous rear quarter with an incongruous slab sided scab. Yet another misguided attempt by European stylists thinking these absurd fins will attract American buyers. Same marketing strategy employed throughout the years right up to Koenigsegg incorporating jumbo sized cup holder quartet in his latest four seater.
Have you never seen the Bertone "BAT" Alfa's? You're saying voluptuous is a stylistic virtue - others would disagree, including Enzo himself who famously hated "soft" designs.
You have great content, but you have no idea how to pronounce some of the brands, eg, Bizzarini, Porsche, Zagato, Pagani, Borani, coupé, (coops are for chickens) Vignale, Lancia etc.
Thanks for a great video. I believe the TAG 911 you showed has a TAG Formula 1 V6 in it. Not sure why someone would do that but it takes all sorts! Loved the blue post war Delahaye.

An absolutely outstanding presentation of the world's finest classic cars, thank you Richard!
Wow the first 5 minutes of cars was overwhelming- all the greatest hits in one place! Thanks for getting there early for an insider view.
Greatshow , thank you from Prague.

By far the best video and coverage of the quail, if not the best of the entire car week. Thank you Michael! Epic and so educational!
What a treat that was. Fabulous, thank you.

Oops, forgot to comment. Wanted to go to The Quail this year but didn't recycle enough cans to come up with the quiche! Next year I'm asking Richard for a loan! Thanks Richard, another great vid!
Thank you. Richard 👌🍺, didn’t you notice Wayne Carini in the background when you looked at that none restored Jaguar SS 100 ?
Wayne Carini ogling the Jag SS100.
Wayne is also an unrestored original!

Dude I don’t know who says WOW more in these videos, you or me.
You sir have most resoundingly proven that contrary to popular modern day cultural beliefs, gorgeous cars and beautiful women are not as rare as the world would have us believe. Nicely done !
great coverage!
@RMO, Thanks for the tour! ...and yes, that E Type... WOW!!

Thanks Hans great to hear from you.
Thanks for sharing another great collection of vehicles. Cheers

Great walkabout; the post-war Delahaye, and the Dino Aerodinamica are really something.
Wow - this is amazing! Thank you for taking the time to film and post
Thank you very much for your interesting and very professional presentations, Richard. Like it very much
Next best thing to being there. Thank you RMO!
Thank you for taking us there! What a treat! Lots of One-OFF prototypes too. (A suggestion if I may: Have some one help you with pronunciation, esp. Italian.)
Thank you Richard! The unrestored Jaguar SS 100 is remarkable.
This was really enjoyable to watch! Thank you!
really enjoyed your video; great coverage and video creation
Richard, the Morgan F4 reg DFV 439 , was a Blackpool . Lancashire registered car. so would have been running around Blackpool & Fylde and may have been seen by William Lyons or William Walmsley. Great video coverage, your arm must have been aching by the end.
Thank you so much
Great coverage Richard!
DAMN GOOD vid thank you
Great review chap 👍🙂
That unrestored SS is a gem!
Yes that was cool wow
Wasn't that Wayne Carini of Chasing Classic Cars at 24:00 looking at the unrestored Jaguar?
Absolutely Great. But you missed a Ferrari Testa Rossa race car I saw in the background... maybe a 275 S?
Отличная экскурсия!👍
Спасибо!

Just seeing that Lotus Etna prototype made me think I would kill to see the Peugeot Quasar. Has it ever been out and about?
like to have known more about that ending Alfa.
@24:10 Wayne Carini spot!
Were the black wire wheels on black an original option on the Jag XK120?

I’ve never been to the Quail. Maybe next year. I’ll sell a kidney. Lol
Are you royal ty, Dicky, i mean how do you get in?
The lotus Etna at the start didn’t have a dust cap on the tires air valve ! Amateur hour surely !
that Ghibli...omg
A lot of nice cars, but a survivor, like the ss100 jag is still another thing. Full of life….
