Mid-State Antique Auto Club
Then...
Prior to the formation of the Mid State Antique Auto Club,
several former members of ROCK, met to form a new club.
ROCK was a club formed primarily of Ford Model T and A owners.
Rollstone was the name of an area of Fitchburg
and was appropriate to find its way into the name of this club.
The original club met regularly in Fitchburg, MA
in one of the member's barn.
Rollstone Old Car Klub!
Meetings lasted as long as members could stand
sitting on the hard boxes and barrels or until the cold got to them
(during winter meetings).
As members faded in and out of the club, over the years,
a few die-hards, listed below, finally re-organized in 1979
and became the basis of our present club,
Mid State Antique Auto Club (MSAAC).
