Upstate SC region AACA annunal Holiday Gathering

[firstgenaddict]

The Upstate South Carolina region AACA club held their annual Holiday Gathering on Sunday December 9th. Local member Jim Benson, offering the use of his personal automotive collection/museum Memory Lane, graciously hosted the event.
Jim has an extensive collection of vehicles bent towards Chrysler... 48 Years as a Dodge Chrysler dealer makes it honest.

Nice stuff James!~!!

The Dark Green 1928 Hudson Six is Powered by a new HEMI from a Dodge truck, and has a Fat Man front end. The fab work is great on the car.

I am having lunch with Mr Benson this week and am very interested in learning more about his collection.

Personally I like the Poppy red Mustang fastback and the Chrysler 300 conv with the 2 four cris-cross intake.

Great collection, thanks for sharing and it's good to know there is a fellow AACA'r on this site. Are you up in the Greenville area? we've been to a couple of National Meets there.
