All the money raised from this year’s Hot Rods and Heroes show at the Bill Dodge Auto Group in Westbrook is going to the nonprofit Veterans Forward.
Paul Goodhill says he was impressed with the collection of what’s believed to be about 600 cars.
“I love the old cars, especially the older ones,” said Goodhill. “All the work that went into it to get over what they’re in there, condition they’re now, is fantastic. Lot of love went into this.”

Jim Begin paid the $20 entry fee get his car in the show.
“The people, oh, terrific,” said Begin. “A lot of people, you know, take interest in a car, you know, this is a British car. Everything is American down here, you know? And when they see this, it’s something different.”
Totals in what was raised for Veterans Forward have not been finalized. WGAN also staged a radiothon for the nonprofit last Thursday.
