Title: Alain de Cadenet
Post by: Mike Hughes on July 17, 2022, 22:27:35

Alain de Cadenet passed this month, a terrible loss to the community.
If you haven't seen his Victory by Design series, it's a must-watch for the serious vintage sports car enthusiast.

And if you haven't seen this infamous clip yet, give it a watch also. Years later, it never gets old.

I always looked forward to reading his contributions to Classic & Sports Car each month.  The cast of real cars and real characters he brought to the page were always entertaining.

I've always enjoyed his Victory by Design series.
