OWEN SOUND, Ontario - July 16, 2019 - PRLog -- The shores of Georgian Bay and the lush fairways of Cobble Beach Golf Resort will once again be the canvas on which to present over 100 beautiful and rarely seen works of automotive art. Thousands from all over Canada and the United States will gather to appreciate the craftsmanship of the automobiles, as well as the riveting stories of the people who have owned them throughout their years.  Only the most elegant, original and authentic vehicles are invited to participate in the Sunday Cobble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
