Detroit had the dubious privilege of hosting The Concours d'Lemons Michigan last week, and from the pictures, we can say that rust was well-represented.
"Worst of Show" went to a 1989 Cadillac Allanté whose owner wished to remain anonymous out of fear from a group of Allanté owners who take matters very seriously.
The show also saw the debut of the "Half Assed, Half Car Detailing Competition” …
That pinto is teh hotness.

Naw, just too little or too much typing fluid (beer in my case.)
Serious question: would you prefer I didn't say anything? Is there a better way to go about pointing that out?
Will delete later.
Thank you!
Remembering how big a group of shiny happy people the allante owners group was back in the day at the carlisle gm nationals, anytime an allante is involved anywhere it should by default win worst of show. What jerks.
That VINwiki video of the Allante force gives me life. The fact there is someone, somebody who takes his 80s Cadillac dream-crusher so seriously makes me grin.
Things are coming back to me slowly, mind you this was 18-20 years ago.
we’re in hotel lobby, host to the allante owner’s group. this obvious new jersey woman with much tan and leopard print is next to us. “Excuse me, are you with the cadillac club?”
”Um, NO, i’m with the ALLANTE GROUP” and huffs off.
We being lowly chevy club used to berkeley with the allante people any chance we got
One of the first cars I ever did competitive analysis on was a yellow Allante. I thought was a fine car back in 1992.... I can't even remember why we had it....
