The Pre-War motoring world is getting older. A big worry to many of us. How to get the attention and enthusiasm of the next generation for the very old cars.
In the Netherlands the problem is not different from anywhere else. A couple of years ago the dutch Pionier Automobielen Club came up with the idea to 
organise an event strictly for people under 40 years old, but drive cars built before 1940. Different atmosphere, different people and different talks; a totally different concept! So sorry for you old buggers, just like your editor you will not be allowed to join in. Great !This year will see the 6th edition. And every time more and more pre-40 youngsters do particpate. The
cost of the weekend is lower than of most classic car events but still has a lot to offer. Basically this comes down to long nights in the bar and a lot of laughs. And of course, a lot of nice cars.Last years there was a wide range of cars, from a 1902 Crestmobile to a 1935 Lagonda. Some with problems but there is always a backup team! (editor: hopefully under- and pre-1940 as well!)
This years edition will be held in the North of the Netherlands. We are asking all people(from both the Netherlands as other countries), younger than 40 years to come, crank your car
and see how much fun it is. If you have another idea how to get the new generation in old cars, let us know. We are very interested to hear from you.If you like to participate, then contact Laurens Klein at PreWarCar: office@prewarcar.com or call +31-(0)621-276908.
