NEC CLASSIC MOTOR SHOW Te NEC Classic Motor Show in Birmingham, England, held last November 11–13, is likely the best car show
you’ve never heard of, and if your automotive tastes have an English bent, it’s possibly the best show on earth.
COURTESY FREEDOM ROAD RALLY
At the NEC, the question isn’t whether there are Smiths water temperature gauges to be found, but whether you want them for a Riley, Alvis or Morgan. Incidentally, those clubs plus other familiar marques had stands at the show. In all, there were 1,200 cars and 500 motorcycles displayed in the five mammoth exhibition halls. Dave Kinney, publisher of the Hagerty Price Guide, and our publisher, Rob Sass, were joined on stage by Mike Brewer and Edd China of the Discovery UK show “Wheeler Dealers” for three
British market valuation seminars, while the BBC’s “Top Gear” put on a live ver- sion of its show at the adjacent LG Arena. Plan ahead at
