Whether you're buying or selling, there's no lack of auction houses specializing in classic automobiles. And now there's one more. Called (suitably enough) Historics, the upstart has set up shop at Brooklands, the historic home of motor racing in the UK. And they're preparing to kick off their first auction on June 2 with a $3.7 million docket of classics.

Among those collectible motor cars on consignment for the upcoming event are a 1930 Bentley 4.5 liter Vanden Plas Tourer (estimated at £775,000/$1.1m), a rare Aston Martin DB2/4 Drophead Coupe and a flawless '68 Mini Cooper S. All told, 65 vehicles will be part of the docket early next month, and we look forward to reporting on many more in the future.
