The annual Newtown Business Association Antique and Classic Auto Show has been a long-running tradition since the mid 1970s.

That first year, organizers paid The Trenton Horseless Carriage Club to bring their cars to State Street on a Saturday in June and gave them each $5 for lunch. The tradition continues, minus the Horseless Carraign Club, to this day.

The event rain date is July 28.
