2025 is officially rolling for NAR! We kicked things off in a big way with our February dinner meeting at Phil Sandoval’s, where we had a fantastic turnout and filled our meeting area to capacity. It was great to reconnect, see new faces, and feel that energy as we headed into the season.
On March 22nd, we held our first official display event at the New Sharon Senior Center Craft Show in Hazel Green. With 16 vehicles on display, NAR made a big impression—the event organizers were beside themselves with gratitude and excitement over the participation. The cars were a hit, and the community atmosphere, made it a fun day for all involved. A huge thank you to everyone who came out and represented the club!
In addition to car displays, we’ve already helped make a couple of weddings extra special with our vehicles. And on the preservation side, a special shout-out to Jim True, who recently assisted in the creation of a video demonstration of a vintage 8-track player using his own car. That demo is now part of an interactive exhibit at the SIGNALS Museum, and it’s an excellent example of how our members continue to find ways to share and preserve automotive history. Be sure to check it out—great job, Jim!
Finally, a friendly reminder: NAR membership dues for 2025 are now due. If you haven’t already submitted yours, please send payment to Treasurer Dave Robertson. Thank you all for your energy, participation, and dedication to the club. Let’s keep the momentum going as we roll into a great spring!
The North Alabama Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) was organized in December 1961 as the "Huntsville Antique Automobile Club". In 1962, the club submitted a petition for charter to the national AACA. The charter was officially granted in February 1963. The, newly named, North Alabama Region (NAR) was the first antique automobile club in Alabama to become nationally affiliated with AACA.
The club's vision is to encourage membership participation in antique automobile related activities including displaying, touring, technical sessions and supporting other antique car group activities. The club strives to offer innovative, interesting and rewarding antique car programs to the entire membership.
The club meets the fourth Thursday of the month at Museum of Information Explosion, 1806 University Drive, Huntsville, AL. Exceptions are that in the months of March, June, and September the club has a dinner night at a local restaurant, the November meeting is held on the third Thursday due to the Thanksgiving holiday, and the December meeting is our annual Christmas dinner held in early December.
NAR is active in the community and participates in local parades, historical events, and public displays. Members also enjoy other club events, such as road tours, "garage crawls", picnics, and educational activities.
NAR hosts an annual Car, Truck, Motorcycle Show and Flea Market. The show is a judged event for vehicles 25 years and older. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards are presented across 34 classes for modified & production vehicles. Special awards include: President's choice, Mayor's choice, Best of show original and modified, and Best Mopar.
Club members and show participants have a vast amount of antique automotive knowledge they are willing to share among themselves and the community.
