The Middle Tennessee Region of the AACA is hosting the Annual Grand National and the Southeastern Division Fall Meet June 12th-14th, 2014. This meet will feature members cars from all over the county and give the people of our area the opportunity to get up close to some very rare and outstanding vehicles.

This Dual Meet will be held in Fiddler's Grove at the Wilson County Fairgrounds In Lebanon, Tennessee. We hosted the 2009 Southeastern Special Fall Meet and extended our hospitality to many AACA members and the general public who came out to view the outstanding cars. We appreciate the opportunity to host this once a year event here in Lebanon.

We feel honored to have been selected to host this Antique Automobile Club of America Dual Meet, which will consist of a Grand National Show on Friday, June 13 with the "Best of the Best" cars in competition and a National Meet on Saturday, June 14 with many cars seeking top awards in their respective class. To participate in the Grand National, a member’s vehicle must have received a Senior Award in the year prior the Grand National Meet.

If you would like to enter a car in this show please contact us. The cars entered in these shows are original cars or cars that have been restored to how they would have been when they left the factory. Modified cars are not allowed to compete at AACA automobile meets. Membership is required in AACA to enter a car in the show. More information about judging guidelines is available from the AACA website.

As a special gift to people who register their car for this Dual Meet we will be offering a free souvenir photograph of their car taken in front of a vintage service station.

The public is invited to come view the cars during both of the shows. Admission is free! Please come throught the main gate to the Wislon County Fairgrounds. The Grand National cars will start coming on the show field Friday moring at 7:00 A.M. They will be placed in and around the many old buildings in Fiddler's Grove. After they are judged many of them will remain on the field for the next day. On Saturday the show cars will once again enter the field for the National event at 7:00 A.M. They will remain on the field until the chief judge releases them, usually around 2:00 P.M.

In addition to having several hundred very nice antique cars on display, there will be many other activities taking place. Fiddler's Grove will be open and the buildings will be manned with people explaining how life was in days gone by. There will be lots of music and a variety of food vendors and a automotive related flea market. If you would like to have a booth in the flea market, please contact Tony Weigant to reserve your space. A car corral will also be available to brouse through, you just may find that special car or truck that you have always wanted. All cars and trucks are elegiable to be placed in the car corral, not just antiques and original cars. If you have a car or truck to sell contact Tony Weigant for information.
