(continued from page 14) models through 1986. As a tribute to the th 100 anniversary of Chevrolet, all 1955–57 Chevys will be featured at this year’s show. These “featured cars” will have their own class, and special awards will be presented to first 25 registered. A portion of the proceeds from the show will benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of New Jersey, a non-profit agency that grants the fondest wishes of children with life-threatening illnesses. Proceeds will also support awards to vocational school students who demonstrate outstanding performance in an automotive field. This annual show is the club’s major fundraiser. The event will include food and beverages, door prizes, a cash prize, and music. Each year, over 250 show cars, 1,500 spectators, and 40 vendors attend the show and flea market. The flea market features automotive products and a wide variety of crafts. Every year, there are items of interest for all, so be sure to check out the vendors as well as the vehicles. Once again, Robert Luczun will display his eye-catching 1928 Model AR Roadster “Car-Toon” Truck. This vehicle is the most photographed car each year. Bring the family to see the result of this 2,000-hour airbrush project. The front fenders are covered with black-and-white characters such as Felix the Cat, the Three Stooges, and Howdy Doody.

At the August (2010) meeting of the VCCA, Dave and Bennie Cavagnaro and family were awarded a plaque in honor of their 30-plus years of pre-registration/registration coordination and administration for the Franklin Lakes shows. The honorees responded with the following letter. To the members of JLR: Bennie and I would like to thank all of you for the very nice wall plaque recognizing our efforts for doing the show car and vendor registration for our annual show. The plaque will be a reminder of many enjoyable years of JLR fellowship. When we began over 30 years ago, the show was held in Butler. It was later moved to Franklin Lakes. Our show has grown over the years due to the enjoyable venue we offer. JLR will continue to offer one of the most enjoyable antique automobile
