There's an ongoing thread over on the FFR forums:

Looks like Tony (UrQ), who lives nearby, is putting together a bit of a gathering, too.

The official site for the event is here:

http://www.kirklandconcours.com/

The Washington Shelby American Automobile Club (WSAAC) says (http://wasaac.org/):

Quote:
At the present time we have 10 Cobras, 10 GT40's and 9 early GT350's.

Among the Cobras at the Kirkland Concours we have:

Daytona Coupe - one of six made, one of three left in the U.S. This coupe won the most races of any of the Daytonas and was driven by Gurney and Bondurant.
Dragonsnake - Lynn Park's drag race prepared "El Cid".
The Flip Top - Ken Miles' "The Turd".
Among the GT40's at the Kirkland Concours we have:
One of every body style GT40 will be present, MKI, MKII, MKIII, and MKIV.
One of the GT40 roadsters, 1 of 5 made.
Ken Miles' 1966 Lemans 2nd GT40.
Among the GT350's at Kirkland we will have:
The first street 1965 GT350 built.
The first R- model built ex. Miles, Titus, Cantwell.
One of every color available for the 1966 GT350 model line.
There will also be a collection of 10 to 15 Shelby Mustangs and Cobras from the Washington State Shelby Club in an area just North of where the Concours is located. Peter Brock, Shelby American's head of special projects and designer of the Daytona Coupe is an honored judge at this Concours. Peter has written 6 pages on his favorite Cobra stories for this year's event program. There will also be a section of the program for the GT40 and the GT350.
Sounds like one of those events you can't pass up...
