Say hello to Kyle Blake 👋
Kyle Blake, co-founder of the Greenhorn Region and current AACA board member, grew up immersed in the hobby, touring with his grandparents and developing a lifelong passion for antique cars. Today, that passion continues to drive his involvement across the organization—from his early start in the student program to his ongoing support of the scholarship program, and his leadership in building the Greenhorn Region for members 45 and under.
Kyle embodies the next generation of AACA—engaged, enthusiastic, and deeply committed. Be sure to watch the video and see his energy in action—you won’t miss it 🚗💨
The AACA Motorcycle Award is presented for outstanding restoration of a motorcycle shown at a national meet.
🏆 1939 Matchless Model X — Mark & Hilary Becker, Jacksonville, Florida
Mark and Hilary have owned this very rare Matchless for just two years, having found it in England wearing an older restoration. It is now only the second one known to be in the United States. Mark set about doing his own work both mechanically and cosmetically to get it into show-worthy condition. The Model X could reach 70mph in the standing quarter-mile and had a top speed of about 80mph. It originally sold for 70 quid — the equivalent of $88. A modified Matchless X engine was also used in the legendary Brough-Superior SS80.
