There are still clubs like that
Mog south is an example
We drive our cars to our get togethers.....We have the no wash car show.
"We grab a beer and go look to see what other members have done to their
cars. The events are social and the cars bring us together.....no one waxes
the bottom of their cars we would much rather see a bug covered car that has
