It's a list of cars that makes any car enthusiast drool. 1924 Bentley, 1968 Mercedes, 1954 Jaguar, 1974 Porsche. Don't let the vintage title fool you, they're just beginning a trip to the 49th state. "You get to see so much. It opens up these sort of great spaces in the way you can travel from point to point," said Jonathan Auerbach, a driver from America.
The trip is the Trans-America Rally designed by professional drivers from Great Britain. A one month journey from Newark, New Jersey to Anchorage, Alaska that's attracted 41 teams, mostly from Europe, in more than 50 cars.
