Birmingham Featured Classics
"Eleanor"
1929 Hudson Super Six
Imagine it’s 1929. You’re headed to a speakeasy—or perhaps a silent film at the Alabama Theatre—chauffeured in your brand-new Hudson Super Six, gleaming under the streetlights. Heads turn as you arrive. Who is that arriving? A movie star? A captain of industry?
Fast forward to today. It’s your wedding day. The Roaring Twenties are long past, but the feeling is the same—anticipation, admiration, a touch of envy. As your guests whisper, “I wish we had done that for our wedding,” you’ll be glad you did.
First Place Winner, O'Reilly World of Wheels
"It was the perfect exit for our wedding, and our driver was sweet enough to take us the long way so we could drag out our special night that much more." -Kelly & Alex, at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens
"Catherine"
Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith
Freestone & Webb Touring Limousine
Rolls-Royce: more than just a name or a brand — a legend. To say something is the Rolls-Royce of anything means there is simply nothing better. We proudly introduce you to “Catherine,” our flagship — the Rolls-Royce of wedding cars. Only eleven were ever built of her kind, and she’s serial number one. For a day, we invite you to step into the owner’s seat as one of the eleven wealthiest, most sophisticated individuals in the world. Meet your new Rolls-Royce limousine. No one else has anything like it.
Inside, you’ll find that because she’s a true limousine model, her opulent light-gray leather interior is far more spacious and comfortable than a standard sedan, complete with a division window for privacy and an opening rear roof for that wave-to-the-crowd moment. Outside, her distinctive two-tone finish flatters both wedding gown and tuxedo, turning every photograph into an heirloom. This is more than transportation — it’s an experience few in the world will ever share.
"Driving away from the church in "Catherine" was the perfect beginning to our married life! Our guests absolutely loved seeing the car up close—and then sending us off on our honeymoon! Our driver was posh, professional, and all around wonderful." -Margaret, at "The Club" in Birmingham, AL
"Jack"
1952 Buick Eight Special Deluxe
Formal but fun, and forever photogenic—“Jack” embodies vintage Americana. At classic venues like The Sonnet House or The Barn at Shady Lane, his deep black paint and polished chrome become a striking canvas for your white gown. Guests love gathering for photos, and you’ll love the comfortable, composed ride with a professional chauffeur at the wheel.
"Our guests loved taking pictures with the car. I loved the looks and honks we got while riding to the hotel. “Jack” is quite handsome." —Paige & Shea, married in Birmingham
"Elizabeth"
1958 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud
Graceful, timeless, and effortlessly photogenic, “Elizabeth” represents the very essence of Rolls-Royce's most iconic model — elegant, poised, and unforgettable. With the steering wheel on the right — just as she left England — and a hand-stitched, air conditioned tan leather interior, she surrounds you in quiet luxury and a touch of British romance, offering a calm moment amid the joy and celebration of your day.
Whether she’s waiting outside the chapel or glowing in your portraits, “Elizabeth” becomes your private sanctuary and your photographer’s dream — a peaceful pause before the next chapter of your celebration. She flatters every gown, every smile, and every frame she enters, turning your memories into heirlooms.
"Thank you so much to Coats Classic for being a part of our big day! We left our wedding reception in "Elizabeth" -- it was stunning! Our guests were just as excited as we were!" -Anne-Marie, at Theodore Events in Birmingham, AL
"Caroline"
1959 Jaguar Mk.IX Saloon
Chosen by the British Royal Family for her perfect blend of luxury and performance, “Caroline” is where sporting spirit meets refined grace. Her Rose Red leather and rich walnut surround you in unmistakable British craftsmanship, while the smooth purr of her engine reminds you she was built to move—with purpose and style.
With a uniformed chauffeur at the wheel and a factory sunroof above, every moment feels cinematic. In your photos, her long bonnet and chrome details belong in a James Bond film—polished, dynamic, and effortlessly glamorous. “Caroline” brings a sense of motion even when standing still—a grand tourer in every sense, and an unforgettable way to begin your next chapter.
"We had “Caroline” as our car, and boy was she a beauty! We felt like royalty leaving our wedding. It was a touch well worth doing." —Ginny, married at The Sonnet House in Leeds, AL
"Philip"
1960 Bentley S2
Distinguished, composed, and quietly powerful, “Philip” shares his lineage with the legendary Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud — the same graceful lines, the same impeccable craftsmanship — yet carries Bentley’s signature spirit of confident touring. Elegant on the outside and air conditioned within, he’s the perfect balance of refinement and strength.
With flawless tan leather and polished walnut throughout, “Philip” offers you modern comfort wrapped in classic style. Whether you’re stepping into a grand departure or framing timeless photographs, he brings a sense of calm sophistication — a fitting companion to “Elizabeth,” and a reminder that true class never shouts, it simply arrives.

"Elwood"
1963 Lincoln Continental Convertible
The only car of its kind in the region, “Elwood” embodies elegance with fun.

Ride from your ceremony to your reception in air conditioned comfort, surrounded by rich leather and quiet luxury.
Then, as the night unfolds, lower the top and let your celebration begin. “Elwood” transforms from a vision of ceremony-day sophistication into pure joy—your grand exit beneath the stars, rose petals cascading, guests cheering, and memories being made. Elegant. Effortless. Unforgettable.
"Booking "Elwood" from Coats Classic Cars was one of the best decisions to help make our wedding day extra special! It was a great extra detail to have for photos and the perfect car to leave our reception in!" -Sydney, at B&A Warehouse in Birmingham, AL
"Eugen"
1968 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Refined, timeless, and quietly confident, “Eugen” embodies the understated luxury that made Mercedes-Benz the standard of sophistication. With handcrafted details, polished wood trim, and air conditioned comfort, he’s a serene setting for you to exhale — a classic choice for couples who value elegance without extravagance.
His poised proportions and subtle lines photograph beautifully, complementing your gown or tuxedo. And when reserved as a companion car for your parents or other honored guests, “Eugen” offers the same grace and comfort that define every Coats Classic Cars experience — dignified, dependable, and distinctly memorable.
"Our guests loved taking pictures by the car out in front of our reception venue. And the pictures of us by our car were amazing!" —Lauren & Scott, married in Homewood, AL
"Madeline"
Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II
“Madeline” is premiere-night Rolls-Royce—sleek Porcelain White with a tan formal top and a poised stance that feels like a red-carpet arrival. Beloved by icons from The Beatles to Johnny Cash, the Silver Shadow became the most popular Rolls-Royce ever built for one reason: it makes every entrance feel important.
Inside, her cabin is calm and composed, the ride beautifully settled, and the leather air conditioned for your comfort and composure. In photos, “Madeline” delivers that Old Hollywood glow—clean lines, perfect proportions, and a look that flatters every gown and tux. If you want your getaway to feel like the final scene of a classic film, this is the car that lands the moment.
