Gallery: Torrington Lions Club Car Show – May 30, 2025

TORRINGTON, CT – The forecast this morning suggested possible rain by late afternoon, but the Torrington Lions Club decided to roll the dice and hope for a dry evening for its annual downtown car show. Some owners and spectators may have stayed away, but those who attended this evening were treated to some handsome models that were both familiar and fresh to the local car scene.

RIDE-CT probably spent more time gabbing than snapping photos, yet still managed to come up with a gallery…
