NEC Classic Car Show - Cars wanted for exhibiting

If you would like to show your 200Mk2 or 400Mk1 at the NEC in November then please nominate your car.

Cars need to be in very good condition and clean, but not concours.

Cars will need to be static and are unable to moved from Thursday to Sunday. Don't worry about security it is top notch at the NEC.

Nigel has just sent me the dimensions so I am just working out how many car spaces are available.

Edit: Here are two options, any other suggestions let me know and I will edit and post up. The stand is open on all sides (the blocky bits are not walls) with the exception of the join to the Coupe Club.

My personal preference is the one with two cars as it allows for other props for the theme "running in the family" and also plenty of room for people to walk around and peer into the cars without scratching anything.

I must admit the 2 car stand would look better.

I was thinking similiar, I had in my mind a tourer with picnic basket in the back (boot open), sime mannequins and some cycles on the roof. Only trouble is I don't know of any members with a nice tourer.
