Featuring classic cars and motorcycles, the upcoming event will showcase pre-World War II vehicles from 1908 to 1940 and post-war vehicles that were assembled between 1950 and 1970.
"The committee is conducting a strict evaluation process involving the originality of the spare parts, age and historical values," said Gde.
In addition to the vehicles' ages, in that they should have been manufactured before the 1970s, the exhibition is also applying a new regulation that limits the total number of vehicles to 50 for each category. (jes)
