Record crowds turned out for the Lakewood Yacht Club's Wheels and Keels Concours d' Elegance on Saturday and Sunday. "This is our tenth anniversary year of the show," said Commodore Harvey Denman, noting a very successful auction of classic automobiles. "They sold over $5 million worth of cars yesterday." "The tension was just earthshaking when they were doing the 1930 Alfa Romero," said Seabrook Mayor Robin Riley. "It went for over one million dollars." "It is a wonderful show...one of the finest I have been to," said Sir Stirling Moss, the grand marshal of the Concours, adding that he had driven several of the vehicles in the show during his racing career.
