LEHMAN TWP. — Standing behind his red 1956 Austin Healey M100, Jon Valentine rummaged through pictures he had stored in the car’s trunk, showing onlookers a photo of a classic MG that he used to race. Valentine was one of many classic car collectors that showed off their wheels Saturday at the 33rd annual Lake-Lehman Car, Truck and Motorcycle Show at the Luzerne County Fairgrounds — a fundraiser for the Lake-Lehman High School marching band. It was the pefrect venue for Valentine, now a full-time car restoration expert, to tell the story behind his beloved Austin Healey, which features a Cobra engine. Valentine purchased the car in 1975 and drove it until he sold it sometime in the 1980s.
