The Westerly-Pawcatuck Region was chartered with the AACA in 1966 to help promote the enjoyment and preservation of antique automobiles in the Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island area. Monthly meetings are held as noted throughout the year. Our meetings are open to all. Visitors and prospective members are encouraged to attend. Ownership of an automobile is NOT REQUIRED, although membership in the national organization (Antique Automobile Club of America) is a requirement for membership in the Region. A listing of AACA events and membership information can be found HERE.

Members own both domestic and foreign makes representing more than 80 years of the automobile in America. We attend cruise nights, car shows, parades and other automobile-related activities. Annually we schedule several weekend trips to out of state shows in New England and New York and we spend a full week at Hershey, PA every fall. Meetings feature several speakers each year and technical help is always available to members through our Gas Lighters Program.

The North Stonington Agricultural Fair had some great country music, greasy pig races, trotting horses, and our antique cars all in the same area. What a blast! See some photos that are stored in our gallery section.
This very fast 1941 Buick is all decked out for the summer. Here it is making an appearance at Brookhaven Assisted Living. The residents loved it! See more cars and people in our Brookhaven Gallery Page.
