This year, the Simeone is sending its:
- 1911/13 Mercer Raceabout 35J
- 1928 Auburn 8-88 boat-tail speedster
- 1938 Peugeot Darl’mat Le Mans
- 1936 Aston Martin Le Mans
- 1953 Hudson Hornet Twin H-Power
- 1954 Austin Healey 100-4 BN1

The show runs January 28 through February 5 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in downtown Philly. The vintage vehicles are on the Broad Street side of the facility, near the escalators.
In a similar vein, the Academy of Art University annually displays part of its classic car collection at the San Francisco auto show.
