The Aftermarket Guild Hall of Fame Inductees

On Thursday, October 3rd, the newly formed Aftermarket Guild invited new members and former members of the Automotive Fellowship Society, which had been formed in the early 1960s and lasted until 2018, to join them for a special evening—the first of many to come. At this gathering, their mission was also learned—the creation of an industry Hall of Fame!

That evening eleven worthy recipients were inducted into this Hall of Fame, and we present them to you here.
