On January 15, 1946 our group was chartered and became the first Region of the eleven year old  Antique Automobile Club of America.
In those early years our Region included five states in the mid-west.

Today, our Region's 240 families extend from the suburbs of Chicago to encompass the Northeastern section of Illinois.  Our passion is Touring!!  We have a two night Spring Tour in May every year and a two night Fall Tour in October.

We were happy to have hosted The 2004 National Central Divisional Tour on September 8 - 12  2004, and will host The 2011 National Central Division Fall Meet in June of that year.  Our 60th Annual 2008 Lake Forest Auto Show, held on July 20, 2008, is one of the nations longest running Auto Shows.  Our Membership Meeting on January 24, 2009 will kick off our 63rd year promoting the Car Hobby and AACA.  Our Swap Meet was at Don McCue Chevrolet in St. Charles, IL. on January 11, 2009.

The Illinois Region's six Chapters alternate running each of these events.  In addition to our Region events, each Chapter has their own meetings each month with their own Car Shows & Tours.  We are a busy group and we like to have a good time, which isn't hard to do when a bunch of car-nuts get together.

Welcome to our Website!  Get to know our Chapters and the events that we enjoy and contact us to have a good time!!
