And it all comes with an historical town and a backdrop like this,” he said motioning toward the street. “This is another fantastic day for Newtown,” he said. Show chairman Rich Napoli said every year the Newtown show gets better and better in terms of the quality of vehicles it attracts. “Each one has its own charm, its own value,” said Napoli of the vehicles lining the street. “We have everything from a pristine Model A to beautiful Chevy Corvettes and a superbly restored Ford Gran Torino – completely different cars, yet they’re all beautiful and worthy of being here in the show. But, he added, all those pristine and beautiful vehicles makes judging the show “challenging. It was between a restored Ford Pace Car Gran Torino and a 1930 Ford Model A. Both, they said, were “extremely and beautifully well restored. In the end the 1930 Ford Model A two-door sedan, owned by Willow Grove resident John Sheaffer, won the heart of the NBA judges and the prestigious award. “I’m very surprised and very, very pleased,” said Sheaffer. So I was very happy and very thrilled. Source: www.buckslocalnews.com
