Chapter Car of the Month
Below is a 1960 CHEVROLET IMPALA owned by Harry and Dixie Sutton of Mount Olive. This car is a very original, low mile example of American style and muscle. It has the 348 Triple Deuce engine and 4-speed manual transmission. Even the interior is original. There's enough room in the trunk to have a family picnic. You'll be hard pressed to find a nicer example of this model car anywhere. This is another prime example of the quality of cars that are enjoyed by all of our club members.

About Us
The Southeastern NC Chapter AACA holds regular monthly meetings on the first Thursday of every month. Our dinner and business meeting begins at 7:00 PM and is held at the Southern Belle Restaurant, located at 203 W. NC 55 Highway, Mount Olive, NC 28365. The restaurant is located across Highway 55 from Walmart.
Anyone with an interest in antique vehicles are welcome to attend our meetings and/or join the Chapter. There is no requirement that you must own an antique vehicle to be a member of the Chapter, the NC Region AACA or the national AACA.
The Southeastern NC Chapter established and supports a scholarship endowment fund at Mount Olive College. Each year the College selects a student to be the recipient of our Scholarship. The Chapter continues to raises funds for the Scholarship from car show proceeds and other activities.
History of the Southeastern NC Chapter The car club originated in 2001 under the name of "Ole Lightning Rods" and later changed to the Southeastern NC Chapter of the Antique Automobile Club of America or for short, SENC AACA. The SENC Chapter has over 50 members primarily from Wayne, Duplin, Sampson, Harnett and Nash counties. The SENC Chapter is part of the North Carolina Region AACA. The NC Region AACA is the largest AACA region in the United States, with 14 chapters across the state. National AACA headquarters are located in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
Our Car Show:
The Southeastern NC Chapter AACA antique car show will be held on September 15, 2012. The location is downtown Mount Olive on Center Street. This car show is our primary fund raiser to support the SENC Chapter AACA Scholarship Endowment Fund at Mount Olive College. Many area businesses and individuals are financial supporters and sponsors to our show. Our primary sponsors are the Mount Olive Pickle Company and the Eastern Aluminum Company in Goldsboro. The generous support of all sponsors is greatly appreciated, without their support the car show and the Scholarship Endowment Fund would not be possible.
Social Activities: Along with our regular monthly dinner meetings, the Chapter has special social activities throughout the year such as cookouts, museum tours, a Christmas party and attendance of Christmas musical shows and other holiday stage productions.
Area Car Shows: Chapter members are are encouraged to attend and support our fellow AACA chapters. We also attend non-AACA car show events, festivals and cruise-ins.
