Pebble Beach 2013: Best in Class

By Perry Stern of MSN Autos
 
For the Pebble Beach Concours, entrants have spent countless hours and dollars meticulously restoring their rare collector cars. They have sweated a morning of intense judging, and they say it's an honor just to be invited to show a car — but ultimately participants want to win. Of course only one car can win the coveted Best of Show honor; but there are 30 classes of vehicles under scrutiny, so a winner from each group also gets an award. Here are the winners in each class at the 2013 Pebble Beach Concours d' Elegance.
