  • Owning Cars   ( 7 Articles )

    The first place to start with a car hobby is to obviously get a car. Although a car is not required for joining ACCCC, having one is highly recommended. ACCCC's charter recognizes antiques, classics, and general interest vehicles.

    An antique car can mean a variety of things. Some consider any car over 25 years of age to be an antique. Others may consider it to mean vehicles built during the period of 1886 to 1915. Classic cars are usually an expensive or usual class of cars built during the period of 1925 to 1948.
