Shown below are a few pictures of Tom Matano's Vallelunga car at the 1997 Concours Italiano in Carmel Valley, CA (a few miles south of Monterey.) This is an elegant (and expensive) yearly showing of Italian cars. It is part of the Monterey Weekend held each year in the month of August. 1997 featured the works of DeTomaso. Use above link for info on the next show.
Be patient, it may take awhile for the pictures to load.I guess Tom was a bit surprised to find that some people are actually named Vallelunga. He apparently did not believe me. I had to show him my drivers license to prove who I was! The photo on the left is me pulling out my wallet to prove this.
On the right is my son Daniel sitting in the car. He doesn't look too happy. This is probably just because he is a teenager but it could also be related to the fact that it was not easy to get inside this car. Comfort did not seem to be one of its strong points. Also note that I am only 5'8" tall. Tom is even shorter. This car is not made for tall people!
