This year the 2020 Concours d'Elegance of America car show event and its Automotive Heritage Awards for outstanding Journalists and Writers, were offically cancelled due to Covid-19. However, the event planners had decided to make the 2020 Automotive Heritage Journalist Awards virtual and live on Youtube - Sunday July 26, 2020, which I had watch it and thought it was very interesting. They had announced the 2020 Future Collectible Vehicle of the Year Award, 2020 Concept Car of the Year, 2020 Lifetime Achivement for Journalism Award, and the 2020 Automotive Heritage Awards for outstanding Journalists and Writers. Last year there was no Chrysler Corporation related articles that had won the prestigious 2019 Automotive Heritage Awards for outstanding Journalists and Writers. But this year, there were (4) outstanding Chrysler Corporation related articles that were nominated and that had won the prestigious 2020 Automotive Heritage Awards for outstanding Journalists and Writers. The overall competition was very competitive this year with 10 different entry categories, which there were a total of 32 judges that would score each of the entry submissions and the chief judge was well respected Csaba Csere, who was a former technical director and editor-in-chief of Car and Driver magazine. 1) Richard Sias’s 1968 Dodge Charger design both defined and ended his career at Chrysler – Daniel Strohl -Hemmings magazine 2) “Larger Than Life: Uncovering the Legend of Big Willie Robinson” – Daniel Miller -Los Angeles Times newspaper – Best-in-Category Trophy Winner 3) Chrysler “Spins the Music” Again with RCA “45” Auto Victrola – Rick Hirsh -Chrysler Power magazine 4) Lee lacocca, ‘Father of the Mustang,’ Dies at 94 – David Smith -WardsAuto News If anyone is interested in watching this event, which I thought was very interesting and enjoyed very much, I have attached the The Auto Channel website link below, which also has more information and the Youtube video link. https://www.theautochannel.com/news/2020/07/27/835900-2020-aha-journalism-awards-winners.html
