Welcome to the Horseless Carriage Club of Missouri, Missouri oldest antique car club, founded in 1944.  We are also the second oldest, Horseless Carriage Club in the country!  I am honored to be your new President.  I hope I can be as good as my predecessors.  The HCCM regular meetings are generally held at Logan Chiropractic College.  Meetings will be short and informative, and filled with fun activities.  Our newsletter is called the “Brass Lamp”.  This is appropriate since early automobile lights were literally a Brass Lamp powered, not by electric lighting, but by oil, kerosene, or acetylene gas. The Brass Lamp will be also a lot of fun, to read with interesting articles and technical information, as well as up-coming events. 

The Horseless Carriage Club of Missouri is a non-specific antique car club, which means we do not concentrate on just one Make or Model of a car.  You do not even have to own an antique car to belong, just an interest to become a member.  Current members own a wide arrange of cars including St. Louis built Moon’s, Dorris’s , to Auburn’s, Franklin’s, Packard’s, Nash’s, Hudson’s, Studebaker’s, and other brands you may not have heard of.  Of course, current members also own a variety from the “Big-Three” (Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler products).

The advantages of being a member of the Horseless Carriage Club of Missouri are many.  However, the biggest is the “networking”.  That is to say, you will meet people that can help you on your project car or even finding the car of your dreams or the car you always wanted as a kid.  That’s what I did.  I found my 1953 Packard (I always wanted a Packard) through members of the club.  The help they gave me, and the friendship I made, I will never forget.
