Preserving Automotive History

M

ichigan Sen. Gary Peters
introduced legislation last
month to help preserve
the legacy of American automobiles
and motorcycles and the vital role they
play in American culture and history.
The “ National Historic Vehicle Register
Act” will authorize the Department of
Interior to establish a federal register of
historic vehicles to document and pre-
serve records of American automotive
and motorcycle history.
“Few engineering innovations have
had the same impact on American soci-
ety as the automobile, and it is impor-
tant for us to preserve the stories of
vehicles that have played a critical role in
American history,” said Peters.
“This legislation will ensure records of
the historic vehicles will be available to
inspire the next generation of automotive
engineers and celebrate the accomplish-
ments of the automotive industry that
continues to be a vital part of our econo-
my in Michigan and the United States.
“I am proud to work with the Historic
Vehicle Association (HVA) and the
American Motorcyclist Association to
support the preservation of America’s
rich and unique automotive history.”
According to Mark Gessler, president
of the HVA, “Cars, motorcycles and
trucks chronicle our past and help us
understand who we are, where we have
been and where we may be headed,
and the Historic Vehicle Association is
focused on ensuring this history is care-
fully preserved for future generations.”
Wayne Allard, vice president for
government relations of the American
Motorcyclist Association (AMA) and
former U.S. senator, said, “As a longtime
motorcyclist, Sen. Peters knows there are
few things better than the freedom of

two wheels on the open road. Whether
traveling cross country or just across
town, motorcycles are a part of America’s
automotive culture, and the American
Motorcyclists Association is pleased to
support the National Historic Vehicle
Register Act to help highlight America’s
motorcycling history.”
The National Historic Vehicle Register
will preserve records of selected historic
vehicles and motorcycles which will
be archived in the Library of Congress.
Vehicles must be connected to a signifi-
cant person or event in American history
or have a unique design or rarity to be
eligible for the register.
Each vehicle’s record will include a
narrative describing the vehicle and its
historical significance, a photographic
record and line drawings or engineering
drawings of the historic vehicle.
There are currently 14 historic vehicles
recognized by the Historic Vehicle
Association that have been documented
through the U.S. Department of the
Interior’s Historic American Engineering
Record.
The Historic American Engineering
Record recognizes a broad range of
historical engineering related sites and
structures, including bridges, ships or
roads. The National Historic Vehicle
Register Act would authorize the cre-
ation of a standalone register for historic
vehicles to preserve and highlight their
unique contributions to American cul-
ture.
Recent vehicles added to the register
include President William Howard Taft’s
1909 White Steam Car, President Ronald
Reagan’s 1962 Willys Jeep CJ-6, the 1938
Buick Y-Job, and the very first 1967
Chevrolet Camaro to ever roll off the
production line.
