Around 100 cars, trucks and an occasional motorcycle were on display at the 22nd Annual Franklin Township Volunteer Fire Company Classic Car Show and Breakfast on Sunday.

The fire company served breakfast in the morning, followed by lunch favorites in the afternoon. There was a themed basket raffle, garden tractor pulls, and music.

The classic vehicles on display ranged from the 1930s up to the 2020s. The car shows have a whole atmosphere, with the car owner setting up chairs and tents near the vehicles and sharing stories about them.

Michele and Chuck Lack from Saylorsburg had Michele’s 2022 Saleen on display.

“It’s a 2022 Saleen Mustang,” Chuck Lack said. “However, you’ll see there is nothing on the car that says ‘Mustang’. Steven Saleen, a racer out of California takes the car and modifies everything. Different rims, different tires, different exhaust, different interior.”

Stephen Saleen is a former race driver and owner of Saleen Inc. of California, and manufactures specialty vehicles including the Saleen S1, the Saleen 57, and highly modified Ford Mustangs, such as the one owned by the Lacks.

Chuck said that out of the white label, yellow label, and black label, they only make 100.

“This is number 37.”

Another car on display was a 1966 Chevrolet Corvair, owned and restored by William Pettit from Jim Thorpe. While normally a rear-mounted engine, Pettit did some changes on this one and put the engine in the front.

“I took a 1980 Olds Cutlass, and I used the chassis and the floor pan. The engine that came with the car was shot, so I repaired the engine, took the emission stuff off, and made it run better.”

It took Pettit about a year to restore the car, a model which holds special memories for him.

“In my 20s, I had two Corvairs,” he said.

Other cars on display included a 1974 Chrysler New York owned by Donna Hein of Bethlehem, a 1946 Dodge Pickup owned by Brent Schoenberger of Kunkletown, a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner owned by Doug Nothstein of Lehighton, a 1932 Rockne owned by Len Ahner of Lehighton, and a 1930 Ford Model A owned by Byron Horn of Kunkletown.

The proceeds from the car show and breakfast will be used by the Franklin Township Volunteer Fire Company.
