50s celebration!

Dear Classic American,

I am a sporadic reader of Classic American (I want an early Eighties Stingray...) and was wondering if you could signpost/publicise/ help me out with an event I have planned in July 2022. I am the headteacher of a school in Nottingham that is 70 years old next year. To celebrate this, we are having a Fifties-themed week in school culminating in a Fifties festival on the Friday evening on our field on July 15. We are in the early phases of planning, but have the music and dancing tentatively booked. I would love a classic car show/display element as part of the attraction; I have a 1952 Land Rover – but it doesn’t scream Fifties like an American classic. Do you know of any local clubs/ owners etc. who would be interested in showing their cars as part of this? Any help would be appreciated.
