The first group, high-performance sports cars, has already passed Soberanes Point on going south on Highway #1 toward the Point Sur turnaround.  These classics are the leading cars of the second group.
 

Ivan Thoen ID's these cars:   "The  page titled "On the Road to Big Sur -- Concours Cars Approach Soberanes Point" shows an L29 Cord leading a late 20's or early 30's Packard. Both these beauties are equipped with Woodlite headlamps."
