Held in conjunction with the Huntington Beach Concours d'Elegance
The Huntington Beach Concours d’Elegance, originally established in 1986, continues its long-standing tradition on the scenic grounds of Huntington Beach Central Park. Nestled beside the Huntington Beach Public Library & Cultural Resource Center at Talbert and Goldenwest, the park once again provided a picturesque setting for this esteemed annual gathering. The event welcomed an impressive array of automobiles and motorcycles from all eras and regions—ranging from American muscle to British classics and modern European designs—creating a vibrant and diverse show field for both participants and spectators.
The 2025 show once again brought out a broad and enthusiastic crowd, with exceptional entries across multiple classes, showcasing everything from vintage race cars and factory-original time capsules to thoughtfully modified classics. The Huntington Beach Concours continues to be a favorite among Southern California collectors and enthusiasts for its relaxed yet refined atmosphere, strong organization, and thoughtfully curated selection.
We invite you to view the photo galleries from this year’s event below and share in the celebration of a weekend dedicated to automotive excellence. Be sure to mark your calendars for next year’s edition of the Huntington Beach Concours d’Elegance—a must-attend for any classic car enthusiast! While this is a 2 day sanctioned event, Tom and the Team chose to attend Saturday as there were other Sunday commitments.
This year, Tom and the team from Classic Showcase returned to the Concours with our recently restored 1954 Jaguar XK-140 MC, which competed in the C3/140: XK 140 (1955–57) class. We are pleased to report the car earned an exceptional score of 99.850, reflecting the care and precision invested throughout its restoration. The XK-140 drew enthusiastic attention from judges and attendees alike, and we were honored to present it among such distinguished company!
