ADVISORY...for Monday (Oct. 28)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

WHAT:       The AAA Glidden Tour(R) -- the largest and longest
            recurring annual antique automobile tour -- will travel
            the roads of Central Fla., Oct. 28-Nov. 1, making its
            first-ever stop at the AAA National Office in Heathrow,
            Florida, on Monday, Oct. 28.  Throughout the week-long
            event, local motorists will be able to view hundreds of
            vintage autos as they travel area roads.

            The 225-vehicle tour -- organized by the Veteran Motor Car
            Club of America -- will be the first in Central Florida,
            and the 57th annual reenactment of similar events
            sponsored by AAA from 1904 to 1913. The original tours
            were held by AAA to prove the reliability of automobiles
            and the need for improved laws, roads and services.

WHO:        Owners of approximately 225 antique vehicles produced
            before 1942 will celebrate AAA's 100th birthday with
            employees of the AAA National Office, AAA Auto Club South
            and invited guests. THIS EVENT WILL OFFER OUTSTANDING
            VISUALS FOR VIDEO AND PHOTOGRAPHY.  B-roll of the original
            Glidden Tours and the Oct. 28th event will be available.

WHY:        AAA originated the reliability tour in 1904 shortly after
            its founding 100 years ago in 1902. The tours were revived
            in 1946 by the Veteran Motor Car Club of America and are a
            showcase activity of the antique car hobby. This will be
            the first time the AAA Glidden Tour(R) has visited the
            national organization that founded the original event, and
            the first time the event has been held in Central Florida.

WHEN:       Monday, Oct. 28 from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., special
            presentations at Noon.

WHERE:      AAA National Office, 1000 AAA Drive, Heathrow, Fla.
                                                                     -
