A selection of some of the coolest and most desirable cars around town will be part of a preview of the Georgia Concours d’Elegance on Sunday. The preview is part of the 10th Annual Peachtree Corners Festival.

The “sneak peek” will allow visitors to get an intimate look at some of the vehicles that will be on display during the full Concours in early 2022.

Some of the classic cars include local resident Ivan Ruiz’s 1952 Jaguar XK120; Gary Moon’s 1922 Moon 6-40 passenger sedan, referred to as “The Ideal American Car;” and Barry Schumacher’s award-winning 1954 Studebaker Hawk.

“These cars are extraordinary,” said Aaron Spaulding, chairman of the Georgia’s Concours d’Elegance.

The preview will be held on Sept. 19, from noon until 5 p.m., at the Peachtree Corners Town Green.
