CCCA Approved Classics
(Borrowed from the CCCA website)
The Classic Car Club of America defines a Classic as a “Fine” or “Distinctive” automobile, American or foreign built, produced between 1915* and 1948. Generally, a Classic was high-priced when new and was built in limited quantities. Other factors, including engine displacement, custom coachwork and luxury accessories, such as power brakes, power clutch, and “one-shot” or automatic lubrication systems, help determine whether a car is considered to be a Classic.
The following makes, or certain models of them, are recognized as CCCA Full Classics. None of the Full Classic® Marques below are acceptable in race car configuration. "All" in a car listing below indicates all built in 1925 thru 1948.
