On
behalf of the Board of Directors and members of the Central
Illinois Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America,
welcome to our National Award winning website. We are so pleased
that you have chosen to acquaint yourself with our region.
We are eager to get to know you, to help support you in the
antique automobile hobby, and introduce you to a world of
fun and friendship.
The prime driving force behind the Central Illinois Region
is the preservation of antique vehicles and motorcycles/scooters
along with having fun. We are not driven by profit or numbers
but by good times and friendships. All CIR activities are
planned for maximum fun at a minimum cost. The
many friendships that will be formed are by far the greatest
reward the CIR has to offer its members.
Why? Because we all have something in common, the love for
preserving and enjoying our antique vehicles, no matter the
make or model we love them all.

ABOUT
THE ANTIQUE AUTOMOBILE CLUB OF AMERICA (AACA):
The
AACA was formed from among a small group of men who attended Antique
Automobile Derbies that had began, in 1931, in connection with
the Automobile Show in Philadelphia. After the fourth such Derby,
Mr. Frank Abramson and Mr. Theodore Fiala conceived of the idea
to form an antique automobile club from among the previous year's
Derby participants. They approached Mr. Jack Dlugash, promoter
of the Derbies, for the participant's names and addresses, which
he gladly provided. Click
