This web site has been set up to introduce you to the Panhandle Cruisers and let you know what we are all about.
Formed in 1981, the Panhandle Cruisers Car Club is
a nonprofit corporation that was set up to collect funds for charities and is founded on the principles of encouraging restoration,
repair, or modification of special interest vehicles. Although the organization has no national affiliation
you will likely find its members among any number of automotive organizations including the National Street Rod
Association, Mustang Club of America, Goodguys, Florida Mopar Association, Corvette Club of America, or newer organizations such as the PT Cruiser
Club to name but a few. The type of vehicles found among the members varies as widely
as the membership in the other clubs, ranging from restored vintage automobiles from the early 1900’s, to street rods
from the 30’s and 40’s, to muscle cars from the 60’s and 70’s, to present day front-wheel-drive imports.
With the wide range of vehicles come varying degrees of modifications from bone stock to big block Pro Street monsters.
There truly is something to satisfy every ones automotive taste.
As with the vehicles there are varying activities
that the members undertake ranging from the weekly cruise nights, to cruises through the countryside, dinner get-togethers,
Christmas parties, and a car show or three. The shows are perhaps the most popular venue for many of the members who engage in showing
their cars at almost every opportunity. The Panhandle Cruisers also co-sponsor and/or support select charity car shows, community events
and festivals by promoting, managing, and providing judging at these events. The organization also provides
the ever-popular music of the 1950’s thru the 80’s as well as the address system for event announcements.
This is their way of giving back to the local communities, as it receives no compensation for its services. Payment
comes in the form of a large smile from a little girl who has just won one of the many door prizes, raffles, or perhaps the ever-popular 50/50 drawing and knowing that thru different charities
we have aided people in need. Whatever the reason, a smile and a “thank you” makes it all worth
the effort.
So come along and join the Panhandle Cruisers
where you will always be a member of the family whether at a cruise night or on the highway. And remember
life is good friends, a clean ride, and the open road in front of you. The members of the Panhandle
