Welcome to the SCMVCC. In the hobby of antique and collector automobiles there are many seperate groups, such as classics, hotrods and muscle cars. And then there is the unique hobby of preserving antique military vehicles. The hobby of restoring and driving military vehicles is like no other. There are many sub groups withing the military vehicle restoration hobby itself. Club members display their vehicles at a variety of events including parades, veteran support, air shows, car shows, gun shows, fund raisers, living histoy events and various patriotic displays. We are incorporated as a 501-3-C, non profit public benefit group. We invite you to attend our monthly meetings and vehicle surplus swapmeet on the morning of the second Sunday of the month at the AMVETS post 113 located in the city of Irwindale CA. 14910 E. Los Angles St. 91706 Meeting is at 11:00, swapmeet starts around 8-9ish. The Young Marines hold a breakfast for a small fee.
If you are interested in the hobby you are encouraged to join. You do not need to own a military vehicle. Our membership is open to everyone, not just U.S. military vehicles.
