More than 100 convertibles from 10 decades were on display this Father's Day on the world famous Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills for the fifth annual Concours on Rodeo. Featured in classes - American Classics, Celebrity Automobiles, British Automobiles, French Automobiles, German Automobiles, Italian Automobiles, 50s & 60s Automobiles, Sports Cars, Hot Rods and Ferraris - some of the finest names in automobile history were assembled for the public to enjoy.

Scheduled on Father's Day from 10am to 4pm - it was a free event with no admission fee to the audience. This was possible due to the generous contributions of the major sponsors and the Rodeo Drive merchants as well as the engagement of the participants.

The automobiles on display were judged by a panel of celebrities, automotive historians, restorers and prominent automobile designers. Among this years' judges were Chad McQueen, Bill Packard, Ken Gross, Roland Heiler from Porsche Design, Anders Warming from BMW Design, Gerhard Steinle - the designer of the new Maybach, and Ken Okuyama.
