    The fifth edition of this show highlights Ferrari as the featured marque. It is held on the lakefront at Veteran’s Park, a very scenic venue, and includes a weekend of events which celebrate a variety of classic automobiles. Approximately 170 vintage cars will be on display, including 20 classic Ferraris highlighted by a rare 1954 375 America from Switzerland which will be at the Pebble Beach Concours the previous weekend.
    Saturday’s Club Day includes more than a dozen regional and local car clubs displaying their finest classics. The Sunday Concours emphasizes Ferrari and honor’s history’s beautiful cars, including antiques, brass era cars, classic American and European varieties and historic race cars.

    Check out the website at www.milwaukeemasterpiece.com or contact Bob Budlow at [email protected] for more details.

    Looks like this is turning into a nice event in Milwaukee. Marcel M. was posting photos of the 375's restoration last year. Very nice.

    Now if we can only get our own Calatrava in Chicago!!!!

    Very true and right now it looks not very promising.

    Ironically I will have to miss the Milwaukee Masterpiece as I will be visiting another Calatrava over that weekend. It is in Valencia.

    It was a beautiful day and the selection of cars was impressive. I was there the entire day and it was not enough time to really look at everything. Lots of friendly people, too.

    Getting to this show required a bit too much effort for me, coming back from Monterey and having the Geneva show too. However, missing that Agnelli 375 sucks. Some background on the car if anyone is interested. Yes I know it isn't a racing car but I like it.

    I was happy to see that one too. The owner is from St.Louis. Here are a few more.
    How about a 1968 Z28 convertible(the only one).

    Great to meet you Jeff. I am sun burnt as red as a lobster... or should I say a Ferrari. :)

    It was great to see the Admiral and his 500 Mondial again, and it was fun to meet an Fchat member I thought I'd never meet in my life. (Marcel M.) What a top class event!

    Nice meeting you Dan (and your dad, too!). Hope your pictures turned out well.

    See you at the LFSC concours in October.

    If anyone is interested in being part of the show on the Saturday venue for next year, I will be putting something together for us to all caravan up there and participate. The information will come in November so we can plan for 2010!

    It was a spectacular back drop and the weather was perfect! Here's a few rare finds.

    There were only a handful of Ferraris. It would be nice to see at least 25 Ferraris there next year, which is my goal, along with a strong showing of Lambos too.

    Would have been nice to have them at the show THIS year, since Ferrari was the featured marque. Club day wasn't bad overall, but it was pathetic having only 11 Ferraris participate while they were the nominal "stars" of the show.

    Did anyone hear what next years featured marque will be??? I hope they keep it Italian.
    It will be 100 years for Alfa in 2010. I would love to see the lawn filled with 2.3 and 2.9 prewar Alfa's.


    Lamborghini, Maserati, Iso, OSCA, Bizzarini, ATS, Detomaso, Lancia, FIAT, Abarth, OSI ect. They have alot to choose from!!

    I thought it was pretty damn good. Maybe I just liked it more because of the soft lighting and absence of people hovering around the cars all day. ;)

    I have no doubts you and your crew will spice the show up next year. :)

    I'm in communication with the event coordinator. They have not decided about the marque for next year. I'll keep everyone posted.
