Two of the world’s oldest and grandest car clubs, The Antique Automobile Club of America, and the Classic Car Club of America, will join together this Spring to host a combined national meet. Scheduled for May 11-13 in Auburn, Indiana, the “Triple Crown” meet will coincide with Auctions America’s Auburn Spring weekend at the Auburn Auction Park. The event represents the first time in the history of both clubs that the two organizations have worked in tandem to host a joint meet. At the May event, AACA members and CCCA members who own full classic automobiles will be able to have their cars judged the same day and vie for their club’s special awards.
“We hope to have as many as 100 classic cars for our members and guests to drool over during the weekend,” states William “Tom” Cox, 2017 AACA National President. “To be able to join together with our brothers and sisters in CCCA will be special for all of us. This is going to be a great weekend for the collector car hobby.”
As part of the weekend’s program, members will have the opportunity to visit four local automobile museums in the Auburn area, as well have the chance to buy one more piece of memorabilia—or even another car if so inclined—at Auctions America’s Auburn Spring event. On Friday, May 12, there will be judging schools and seminars, followed by a free evening concert for club members and VIP guests. Saturday (May 13) will see the car show and judging, culminating with a Midwest barbeque awards presentation. Further information on the “Triple Crown” meet can be found at www.aaca.org or www.classiccarclub.org.
