2021 Southeastern Nationals September 9-11, 2021
By Brian Wingler
The South Carolina Region AACA hosted the 2021 Southeastern Fall Nationals at the Benson Campus of Greenville Technical College in Taylors, SC September 9-11, 2021. Besides the business meetings, on Friday a tour of the local BMW plant, a judges school, and a catered BBQ dinner was available. The car show took place on Saturday the 11th. That being the 20th anniversary of the 09/11 terrorist attack on the US, the Region honored First Responders as part of the gathering. Approximately 200 vehicles were registered for the show and with the very accommodating weather probably most of them were there. Some of the highlights for me were the 1911 Thomas Flyer and the 1934 Packard V12. There was also the 1941 Chevrolet Fire Truck restored by the members of the local Greer, SC fire department. This truck was part of their fleet from new, sold, and eventually donated back to the department. There was a 1920 Anderson, made in Anderson, SC with the radiator badge which proclaimed: ”Anderson, A Little Higher In Price, But Made in Dixie”.
