The Rodeo Drive Concours d’Elegance, which takes place annually
on Father’s Day, shows that fashion and fine cars are
inseparable. And racing drivers like Lindsay
Brewer agree.


“I race and I enjoy that,” Brewer tells host Pari
Ehsan on Rodeo Drive–The Podcast. “But I also can have
the full face of makeup and do my hair and look glamorous,
because that's what I like to do, too, it doesn’t have to be one
or the other.”  


 


Brewer, who is racing in Indy Pro 2000 and has a social media
following of more than three million, opens up to Ehsan about how
to beat the boys on the track, and be a serious driver while
maintaining a glamorous brand that is essential for building
sponsorship. She also previews her new line of unisex, 80s
skiwear-inspired clothing. 


Meanwhile, Rodeo Drive-The Podcast Field Correspondent
Jason E.C. Wright goes deep underground to meet
Scot Prescott, owner and founder of Auto Vault
Storage, a storage and restoration service for some of the finest
cars in the world, which in true Bond style, is buried three
stories underneath Rodeo Drive. Prescott tours him round his
padded garage filled with rare, fast and exotic cars under covers
and recounts his journey from New Hampshire, where he was a kid
with a dream. 


“I used to dream about coming to California. And once I graduated
from high school, I drove out here. I arrived here with $70. And
I started washing cars. I bought some equipment. I wanted to
become the king of car washing.”


“Every car has a story,” he adds, like the 1934 Rolls-Royce
stored there by a woman whose family has owned the car for
generations. “The family assigns people to take care of the car,
because this car is a family member. And she has been assigned to
take care of this car. She lives in California, so the car lives
here.”


The Rodeo Drive Concours d’Elegance was founded in 1993 by the
Beverly Hills businessman and Chairman of the Rodeo Drive
Concours d’Elegance Bruce Meyer and friends who
wanted to raise funds to restore an iconic Beverly Hills fire
truck, so they created a Father’s Day car show on Rodeo Drive.
Almost three decades later, it has become an institution, but had
to put the brakes on during the pandemic. When the Concours
returns, Meyer promises it will be ”without a doubt our best show
ever,” featuring “an extraordinary display of Rolls-Royces,
supercars, antique cars” along with the famed Fire Truck, which
will lead the parade.


Season Three of Rodeo Drive – The Podcast is presented by the
Rodeo Drive Committee with the support of the City of Beverly
Hills, The Hayman Family, Two Rodeo Drive, Beverly Wilshire, A
Four Seasons Hotel, the Beverly Hills Conference & Visitors
Bureau, and MCM.
