Arrow 2020 Audrain Tour d'Elegance

I always enjoy seeing what’s new with cars. I equally like spending time around vintage vehicles. Although the local Audrain Concours and Motor Week was moved to 2021 they did treat us with their Tour d’Elegance.

This year’s Tour d’Elegance was reduced just 50 vintage cars but it was a great mix of cars both American and cars from around the world being driven on over 25 miles of Rhode Island roads.

Fortunately recording video and taking pictures is pretty social distancing friendly. So, I was out of the house by 5:30am to make my way to the first of my 3 stops along the route.

I enjoyed the day so much I've made myself a keepsake of the day in the form of a Video Memory Book. I thought it would be nice to share this short video as I know many of you will enjoy these great pieces of history. I think you’ll be surprised by the true variety of amazing cars.

It’s a short and simple edit video that begins with the tour passing by in 2 different locations and then the last few mins are some very up-close video and stills while parked at their final destination which was the beautiful Fort Adams State Park by water in Newport, RI.

I hope you enjoy it, please give it a look here:

It does very much look like a Jensen now that you mention it, especially with the angle of the camera. However it's a Fiat Dino Coupe. Don't remember the year but I think its a 1967.
