You didn't see a reference to the Mallya Collection in the August 
'Cams' because there were only two cars from that collection at the PA 
Concours: Pete Giddings' 8C35 racer, and the Bucci Special, an 
Argentine-built race car made during WWII on a pre-war Alfa 6C2500 
chassis, and the collection OWNED neither car. Since the real owners, 
were, in both cases known to me, I used their names or the car's 
unofficial name (as in Bucci Special) instead.
