I don’t know what significance this has. My Very First Organized collector car group I joined. I was but a young lad with 'Just an Old Car' until I stumbled across these folks having their National Meet at IMS one weekend. ----------------------------------------------------------------- The Milestone Car Society was founded in 1971, in the belief that the time had come for connoisseurs of distinctive post-war cars - foreign and domestic- to join in one major multi-marque Society in order to better understand and enjoy all types of cars of the first 2 post war decades. MCS is not a rival to the one marque clubs, in fact we try to work closely with them. MCS is a Society of enthusiasts whose interests transcend more than one particular make of car. Thus it offers a sterling opportunity to enjoy and learn about a variety of great automobiles you normally don’t hear much about in a one Marque Club. These are cars that transcend the mere act of getting from one place to another, and were built between 1945 and 1972. ----------------------------------------------------------------- They had a very nice publication for members, and were very open about appreciating the cars they highlighted. Inclusion was determined by 5 main criteria "There are 5 Criteria for acceptance of a car as a Certified Milestone Car. The model should be distinctive because of Styling, Engineering, Performance, Innovation, and/or Craftsmanship-relative to their contemporaries." When I first joined the list of 'Milestones' wasn't as large as it is now. During the 5-7 years I was a member they might have added 3-5 cars per year. -- Paul Holmgren The history of liberty is a history of resistance.
