THE PIONEER VALLEY'S OLDEST CAR CLUB ESTABLISHED IN 1958 CRANKERS ANTIQUE CAR CLUB is one of Massachusetts' oldest car clubs. Founded in an era when the car hobby was being "demonized" by the print and film media, Crankers was formed to present a responsible image of the collector car hobbyist to the general public. Crankers is a non-profit, family oriented organization, whose member goal is to support and promote the classic car hobby. Monies raised by the various functions we promote throughout the season are directed to local charities such as the Shriners, The Lions Club, Children's Hospital, etc. Unlike other clubs devoted exclusively to a particular make or model, Crankers welcomes a diverse variety of cars whose owners need only share a love of vintage cars. It is just that diversity that makes Crankers so special and keeps our club interesting. Crankers Antique Car Club has certainly come a long way in the past fifty years. We have grown from a small group of devoted car enthusiasts to a cohesive club whose unique membership shares a love of the antique car hobby and the friendships it fosters. Our membership has developed into a core of hobbyists willing to help each other out with projects. Several of our founding fathers are still active members. As the club has grown over the years, we still retain their original mission; promoting our hobby in the most positive way possible. You need not own a car to belong. You only need the love of classic cars and a desire to support the collector car lifestyle. Our members regularly participate in Weekend Runs, Local Parades, Shows, Summer Picnics, Trips to Area Points of Interest, and Christmas Parties. These are all family events, and an interested public is always welcome. We are proud of what we have accomplished thus far. We look forward to the next fifty years to becoming even better representatives of the best our hobby can be. Preserving the past is never an easy task, but is one we are willingly proud to accept. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in classic cars, and we invite you to explore our web site and see for yourself what makes Crankers Antique Car Club so unique and so special. Any and all questions will be answered through our contact page. INTERESTED? CHECK OUT OUR SITE.
