MAJOR SERVICE & BENEFITS
-
Our organization spans 23 Chapters wide throughout the Province of B.C. and includes over 1300 car collecting members. If we were to estimate an average ownership of three automobiles per member, the combined Chapters of the VCCC could probably assemble something in the order of 3,600 vehicles.
-
We also produce for our members an Annual Roster, which lists every member within every Chapter. This shows the make, model, year, and condition of each vehicle owned. Also included in this Roster, is a master cross reference which lists all vehicles by Marque, grouped by body style, illustrated chronologically by year, and indicating ownership reference. This is a wonderful benefit for those who are in search of information or parts.
-
Added to this, is our Vintage Car Club of Canada publication called ‘The Vintage Car’. We produce and mail this to our members six times a year. The publication consists of about 40 pages, which are chock-full of useful information. For example, all known events pertaining to car activities are listed, registration forms are included, individual Chapter events are shown, and of course, there is a classified ad section. ‘The Vintage Car’ offers much more, but space does not permit a more in-depth description.
MEMBERSHIP
-
A Membership Form is included in this site for your convenience. If you wish to join only the Provincial body, known as the National Chapter, simply fill it out a and mail it to us along with $50.00 (or $25 if joining after June 30). Please contact me if you are joining the National Chapter and you will be contacted.
-
If you would prefer to join the Chapter nearest you (and we strongly encourage that), send, or take your Membership Form to the Chapter of your choice. (Chapter Membership usually only increases the basic annual membership fee by about $5.00 – $25.00 a year).

-
If you are a member of another organization that supports our objectives (restoration and preservation of motor vehicles, 25 years or older), please consider the value in also becoming a member of the Vintage Car Club of Canada (our membership is so reasonable that most people can enjoy membership in more than one organization)
