So, going through albums of Monterey Car week, I spotted this one. I'm not sure what venue this is but
a nice looking car. Anyone on this forum? Or known to anyone on this forum?

Let's hope and assume it belongs to the guy rummaging thru the trunk.

While difficult to tell from the photo, the engine looks more like an Alfa twin cam than a Lotus.

The show in question was actually in ?Pacific Grove?, a similarly small village next door to Monterey. [It is sort of like the low rent district of Monterey, but don?t tell them I said that]. It is a nice enough place, and if you drive on Hwy 1 past Monterey [going North], then you will transition into PG, probably without even realizing it. And you will also find available less expensive petrol, fast & slower food choices, etc [compared to Monterey, that is]. They have a small, 1 day car show of sorts that intends to highlight smaller [micro, mini and arcane, by their definition] vehicles, 25 yr & older, and w/less than 1601 cc [or electric, now]. Why/how those criteria were chosen is far beyond my knowledge of this event.
