Steam Automobile Club of America

Steam Automobile Club of America Dedicated to preserving classic steam automobiles and disseminating information vital to developers

During the late 1940s and 50s the automobile had reached a state of sufficient sophistication that older automobiles became subjects of interest and collectability. The Steam Automobile Club was organized by steam car collectors after they had arranged and attended a meet pulling in fans from all over. During the 1960s and 1970s the Clean Air Act inspired interest in modern steam cars due to their

smog fighting, low polluting characteristics and SACA members were strong in the movement. As gasoline became less available, small steam systems have become a matter of interest because of their ability to use almost any fuel. Today SACA represents the antique car collector and modern steam car builder while also acting as a resource for the alternative energy developer. SACA is a 501(c)(7) club which is one "organized for pleasure, recreation, and other nonprofitable purposes". As such, the club does not pay taxes but membership dues and donations are not tax exempt.

OK, it's not steam car-related, but there is a coffee pot full of boiling-hot water. The temperature is also -9 F (or about -23 C for you metric fans). Anyhow, it was a fun thermodynamics demonstration.

This invite came in a bit earlier today:

I wanted to reach out and invite anyone from the region to a show we’re having on Fathers Day next year. The event is featuring Early cars, brass and STEAM 💨😊 and we’re looking for Steam cars to feature. If you can make it to Akron OH and have a steam car please message me. We’ll have a track open for the cars to operate during the show. We’d like to do a starting demonstration and more. You can see more about the show here:

For 68 Years The Ohio Region of The Classic Car Club of America has been producing the Nations oldest Father's Day Car Show.
