GREENWICH, Conn. (May 23, 2017) - Saturday, June 3, at the two-day (June 3-4) 2017 Greenwich Concours d'Elegance at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park in Greenwich, Conn., will feature the popular Hot Rod and Custom Car classes, children's cars and Supercars of the world. The day will end with a gala at the Delamar Hotel.

Ida will showcase a 1940 Mercury and a 1948 Tucker Custom, uniquely designed and created at Rob Ida Concepts in Morganville, N.J. 'We're super excited to be a part of the Greenwich Concours,' said Ida, whose company brings three generations of experience in the specialty automobile industry. 'For one of the nation's most coveted Concours to recognize the work of Modern Coach Builders is nothing short of inspiring. Coach Builders have existed as long as cars have and there was a time that these artists and craftspeople were admired and featured for their unique one-of-a-kind vehicles. It's nice to know that the craft is still being recognized at such a high level at the Greenwich Concours.'

Dore will display a 1956 Lincoln Continental Mark II 'ReMARKable' and a 1963 T-Bird 'Tango.' 'I've been hearing about the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance for years,' said Dore, who operates Rick Dore Kustoms in California. 'Our focus is American roadsters from the 1930s through 1960s, and I'm excited to have our cars and car culture showcased at such a great event.'

Carini, based in Connecticut, is known as a master car restorer, car collector and television personality. He owns three restorations companies and, as host of Chasing Classic Cars on Velocity Channel, he welcomes you into the elite club of car restorers and collectors as he buys, restores and sells vintage rides. He also introduces you to owners of the most exclusive and secret garages open only to him. Concours visitors will see hot rods from Carini's collection, including his 'Moal Speedway' which was featured on an episode of CCC.

The extreme Supercars, known for their high-performance and radical design, will also be featured on the field. Cars unattainable to most ordinary citizens will dazzle the senses. They include a Pagani Huayra BC, a Bugatti Veyron SS and a Ferrari LaFerrari.
