The Spirit of St. Louis Region of the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA) welcomes you to our official website. We were founded in 1985 by visionaries who owned and appreciated Full Classic automobiles recognized by CCCA. Our mission, as a non-profit organization, is to promote the enjoyment, restoration and preservation of distinctive and fine motorcars produced during the Classic and Coachbuilt Era from 1915 through 1948. We wish to foster a spirit of fellowship among those interested in the pursuit of perfection in the art and engineering of innovative and distinguishing automotive design.
Our Region is based in St. Louis, MO and serves close to one-hundred members within the Eastern half of Missouri and Southwestern Illinois. We have also attracted members from outside our Region as we welcome a broad spectrum of individuals that share our passion for fine Full Classic automobiles. We are an active club, and our event calendar includes monthly dinner outings called “Spirit Nights.” There are Spring and Fall driving tours to places of local interest and on occasion we embark on weekend overnight tours to more distant locations of an historical nature. We host an annual picnic and encourage co-participation of local single marque clubs. Our newsletter, the print-copy Spark Plug and digital Spirit magazine enable us to recap past events and capture notice of future events of interest to our membership. The goal of our publications is to provide interesting stories, accounts for places we have been, and highlight things we have done.
Ownership of a Classic automobile is not a requirement for membership. We encourage anyone with an appreciation or interest in the Full Classic automobiles of the era from 1915 to 1948 to consider membership in CCCA and Spirit of St. Louis Region. We would love to have you in our organization.
Please come join us….
