Nassau, Bahamas - The
Antique Auto Club of the Bahamas was formed in Nassau on July 26, 1987 with an
initial six members, those being Richard Chestnut, Lenny Brozozog, Don Aranha, Alonzo
Rolle, Murray Forde and Charles Johnson.
All
vehicles older than twenty years old are allowed entry to the club. Membership
has grown steadily over the years and presently stands at over 50. New members are always welcomed.
The
Club holds an Annual Car Show and Steak-out in the middle of March every
year. This year 51 cars and trucks were present plus 7 motorcycles. This
year’s show commemorated one of the three founding members of our club,
Mr. Charles Johnson, who sadly passed away last year.
While no
official numbers are kept, this year it is estimated that some 2,500 to 3,000
people (residents and visitors alike) visited the show over the course of the
day.
The video was shot over two trips to Nassau, completing filming
in May of this year. The DVD features twelve of the Club’s members and
vehicles, and the members themselves telling the story of their cars.
Vehicles include a Ford Mustang, two different Chevy Corvettes,
a 1940 Ford Coupe, a couple of Chevy pick-ups and more. It also includes
footage filmed at the annual Eastern Community Summer Fair.
