Regular followers of this blog, and there are one or two out there, may be familiar with a show I annually cover called Rides On Monmouth. Last year the event didn't occur because of the pandemic and this year it wasn't scheduled either. But many people in the small river city of Newport felt that there was such a need for an event to bring the town together that a near impromptu show was developed. Wheels On Monmouth was put together to help the businesses in the community and it turned out to be the equal to, if not bigger, than many of the Rides On Monmouth shows.
With close to 500 vehicles lining the city's main street and several side lots, Wheels On Monmouth could only be deemed a huge success. Among the cars on display was a rarely seen Oldsmobile F-85, a Chevy Monte Carlo, a Ford Galaxie 500, a Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk, an Impala, and an El Camino.
