Sandy Leith pushing hard with his 1931 Type 37. Leith, who is the Registrar of the American Bugatti Club, tell us about his car: My car was the second-to-last T37 built. It was bought by a New York banker on vacation, Elgood Lufkin, in Paris who brought it home with him. After one or two more owners and an engine blow-up in early ARCA competition, it received the 4-cylinder, Ford B engine in 1935 and raced as the 'Scrambling Egg' Bugatti-Ford special with the ARCA until 1940 when it disappeared. I found it in 1995 and have kept it, essentially, as found.

This image shows the setting of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance as well as any I've seen. Simon Moore brings his Alfa 8C2900A over the ramp in front of the crowd as part of the 100 Years of Alfa festivities. The show itself is in the background with Stillwater Cove lapping at its edges. The white sand beach in the far distance is Carmel and the Santa Lucia Range runs East along the valley of the Carmel River. Credit: Kimball Studios/Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance

This week we review Michael Argetsinger’s books about Mark Donohue, who among many other things was responsible for setting up and driving the Kirk White Ferrari 512M at Sebring and Daytona. Of interest to our readers, Argetsinger will present an in-depth look at the legendary Penske Racing Ferrari 512M as raced by Mark Donohue, at the International Motor Racing Research Center on Saturday, Sept. 4. “No less a figure than Ferrari Chief Engineer Mauro Forghieri called this car ‘the finest prepared Ferrari I have ever seen,’” says Argetsinger. His talk – accompanied by many rare photographs will begin at 1 p.m. and is free and open to all and is located at 610 S. Decatur St., Watkins Glen. For more information: Mark Steigerwald, (607) 535-9044 or by email at mark@racingarchives.org.
