To Buicksplus (and also the guy on another thread commenting on no 55 year olds): I am an on-and-off member of VMCCA, also AACA, and occassionally HCCA. I am in my 50s, own six "pre-depression" cars, non classic, and drive them regularly, weather permitting. I have one more awaiting restoration, which I do for the most part, by myself. I am attracted to these cars, not out of nostalgia, which was the case for the previous generation, but out of appreication of them as historical artifacts--antiques. I avoid meets predominantly filled with 60s and 70s cars, because the owners and I have little in common to discuss. I despise the practice of hot rodding and those who do so. I finally said my last "goodby" to VMCCA when you tried to instigate that hot rod classification about five years ago. Having said this as a way of introduction, I would love to find a national, all-marque club that catered to my interests. By that I mean held shows like the former Hale Farm show in Ohio, held swap meets that presented a reasonable chance of locating pre-war and especially pre1929 parts (like Chickasha), had a leadership that did not assume that anyone interested in prewar cars had to be over 70 years old (which is an absoulte misconception) had a regular magazine that provided me with help and encouragement in restoring, repairing and maintaining cars of my era, and held tours of cars of the age of mine so that the basic driving rhythms would all be compatible. VMCCA provides the latter, to some extent, nationally. None locally for me. But mostly I am describing VMCCA and AACA of the 1960s. There are thousands of us out here, now not terribly loyal to any national club, because none is worth the price of membership. I have so wished for a national prewar club, and so long hoped that eventually VMCCA would give up being a "me too AACA" and find a special niche that would be of use for me. I know it will never happen. Oh well. Maybe I helped answer your questions about lack of interest in your website forum, questions going way back to the "tap, tap, tap..." posting.
