AACA 75th Anniversary Celebration

In 2010, AACA will be celebrating its 75th Anniversary!

The AACA was founded on November 4, 1935 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, when fourteen men (and the wife of one) gathered in the auditorium of the Automobile Club of Philadelphia to start a club that now has membership near 60,000 and maintains the greatest activities, programs and benefits than any other antique automobile club in the hobby.

A dedicated committee of individuals has been planning for this celebration which is a multi-day event June 30th – July 3rd 2010, in Louisville, Kentucky.   The mid-west was chosen in an effort to include as many members as possible from all directions of the United States and International members.   The headquarters hotel and show venue is adjacent to the Louisville International Airport.

The celebration will  be both a touring and show event, so tours are planned for part of the week, and on the last day, there will be a grand car show that is both judged and non-judged.  Concerned about the weather? The car show will be indoors in a beautiful climate controlled facility. We are also planning a special commemorative item for those that participate.

The event will close with a special Anniversary Awards Reception Saturday afternoon. Plus, there are many other things to do and places to see in the area like Six Flags amusement park, Churchill Downs and the beautiful Lexington, Kentucky area and Horse Park. The Louisville community is excited to have us visit.
