Meet Chris Ritter, the new AACA Librarian   Chris Ritter
 
Chris comes to AACA from the Wyomissing Public Library, where he was the Director since 2004.  With a degree in History from Bloomsburg University and a Master of Library Science (MLS) earned at the University of Pittsburgh, he is well qualified to shepherd our world class AACA Library and Research Center

 
He brings a great deal of enthusiasm to the job and is extremely excited to be taking over the reins from retiring librarian Kim (Miller) Gardner.  Over the last 29 years Kim has certainly "set the bar high" with her extraordinary commitment, service and contribution to AACA.  Chris eagerly accepts the positions' challenge going forward.  Kim is very pleased to be leaving her "life's work" in Chris' capable hands and expects the library will continue to flourish under his leadership.
 
Chris also serves as a board member of the Golden Age Air Museum in Bethel, Pennsylvania where he pilots its authentic, open cockpit, 1929 WACO GXE biplane.  Proud owner of a 1946 Cessna 140, his current project entails building a single-seat plane. 
  
2008 Hershey MeetSo, there's another great reason to drive that beautiful Antique Vehicle to Hershey... to stop in your National Headquarters and your Library & Research Center, Meet Chris and Visit with us. 
 
We always welcome the opportunity to greet and assist members of our AACA Family!
  
 
 
Jumbo Ad Special Message from YOUR Library & Research Center!
 
The AACA Library & Research Center receives a broad range of research requests on a daily basis.  Some days are spent identifying cars in photographs, or tracking down owner's and service manuals.  To highlight the broad range of information requests that we receive, the following two examples are just some of the information that is stored at the library.   
 
A gentleman who is restoring a 1928 Chrysler LeBaron emailed a request for information on Watson Stabilators, specifically cutaway drawings and information on how stabilators work.  After examining our online catalog, literature boxes, and accessory folders, we were able to provide just what he needed in the form of brochures, including a cutaway drawing & a description entitled "How Stabilators Work". 
 
Another recent request revolved around a Jumbo auxiliary transmission for a Model T Ford.  In this situation the requestor wanted any parts numbers, pictures, diagrams, advertisements, or specifications that we may have.  The library was able to produce copies of a parts list, catalogs, and several advertisements. 
 
Remember the AACA Library & Research Center during your next (or current) project.  We will do everything we can to track down that manual, advertisement, or anything else you need!
   
 
Give the Gift ....  of AACA Membership!! 
 
If you still looking for that perfect holiday gift, consider giving a 2009 AACA Membership or even treating someone to a Lifetime AACA Membership. Call us at National Headquarters (717) 534-1910 and we will be happy to help you.

And ... then there was One! 
 
In January, the last of the special built Pedal Cars is going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale, Arizona, with all the proceeds benefiting the AACA Family.  Created by the renowned restorer Fran Roxas, "It's A Duesy" is truly another magnificent work of art.
 
To date, the successful 2008 Pedal Car Auction has raised over $100,000 for the AACA Family... a SINCERE THANK YOU to all the builders for their exceptional donation not only the brilliantly creative pedal cars but also the time and artistry required to create them!
 
COMING SOON!! 
A special section in your January/February Antique Automobile magazine will spotlight these talented Pedal Car Designers.

AACA to be featured on new television show, MY CAR FEVER!
 
Currently in production is a new and exciting show, MY CAR FEVER, and the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) is on-board!  Under development by DBL Productions, MY CAR FEVER will shine a spotlight on the wide spectrum of family-friendly events, vehicles and people dedicated to the ever-passionate collectible vehicle hobby.     
 
 
We are excited to report that AACA has been tapped by MY CAR FEVER to serve as industry guidepost, to provide viewers with authoritative information and perspectives on our wonderful hobby as well as offering insight on general trends.  As a regular contributing guest, the AACA will garner more television exposure that we ever had in our history... further cementing AACA in the eyes of our current members, future members, and fellow enthusiasts as the country's premier resource and destination for the collectible vehicle community.
 
Steve Moskowitz, AACA Executive Director, eagerly anticipates AACA's involvement and notes, "I believe our association with MY CAR FEVER will be extremely positive for AACA, spreading the AACA passion and encouraging others to participate and celebrate the hobby." 
 
AACA hosted MY CAR FEVER DBL Productions' film crew and representatives for the entire week of the 2008 Eastern Fall Meet in Hershey providing them with an array of interviews, footage and material in preparation for MY CAR FEVER.

A great ambassador of the club and hobby has passed on
   . . . .  Ronald V. Barnett, Union RonGrove, AL
 
Ron was an avid collector of vintage vehicles, both two wheeled and four wheeled. He especially loved driving the bride and groom for weddings and driving in parades. He was active in the AACA North Alabama Region, serving as president and national meet chairman. He was a member of the AACA board of directors for 15 years and served as AACA National President in 1991. He was also the recipient of five national awards for service and achievement.  No obituary could ever do his legacy in this hobby justice.  Our condolences to his wife, Sally and family.
 
 
Quotes from fellow car enthusiasts and acquaintances:
 
"Lost for words. Tears no problem. Ron loved family, life, AACA, the old car hobby and of course this forum" (AACA Forum)
 
"He will be missed by a whole legion of friends and family. "Mr. Marmon", "Mr. Pipe", "Mr. Moustache" or "Mr. Sherlock Holmes Hat", whatever your memory of him will sure be lasting."
 
"What a wonderful mentor he was . . ."
 
"We had come to know Ron as a good friend and "old car nut".
 
"Always positive . . . Always constructive. . . Always a friend"
 
Truly will be missed by all!

Dear AACA Member:
 
There is good NEWS. Your AACA Board authorized a Strategic Planning (a plan for the future of AACA) session this past summer which will be presented to the full Board during the Hershey meet. One of the concerns of the Communication Committee was how to keep our 60,000 members informed and engaged in AACA activities.  A number of ideas will be recommended to the full Board, but one thing was easy to accomplish was to send you periodically an email full of National and local information.   
 
Our plan is to send this and future emails to all our members and naturally you will have the ability to opt out if you so desire (we think you won't). This year we have added an email address to our renewal forms, so make sure you fill that out.  We want to communicate with all of you and that is our goal!  An alternative way is to provide us with email addresses of the members in your region or chapters.  Have a sign up sheet at your next meeting and email those address to speedster@aaca.org.

We also encourage you to send the email address of non-members who you think would enjoy the email and might want to become members.  Just note that they are non-members.
  
We plan to cover a variety of subjects in the coming months.  The 2009 membership benefits have been enhanced, so be sure to read below. Did you know that there are a number of automobile related magazines, that I am sure you read, that you can get at discount if you are an AACA member? 
  
This is Your newsletter.  We encourage information about your local club that may be of interest to other AACA Members.  We encourage photos and short stories about our members and/or their vehicles. Know of any heroics performed by one of our members - - well lets hear them.  This is a new feature and it will get better! Let us know what you would like to be included in some future Speedster editions. Remember this can help all of us get timely information out about you, your region and AACA!  Enjoy!
