North American Section Benefits

North American Section Membership

 

The London Vintage Taxi Association's North American Section, originally founded in 1972 as the American British Cab Society, has its own Secretary and provides general support for the challenging avocation of attempting to restore and maintain a low-production English vehicle on this side of the Atlantic.

Whilst periodic meetings, shows, autojumbles, etc. are utilized in the UK for the enhancement of the club experience, in the US our geographic density makes most such get-togethers unfeasible, although regional events are encouraged. Our bi-monthly magazine, ‘Vintage Taxi' and heavily-used email network, therefore, provide the backbone of the club's functioning. Member experts offer consultation on particular marques and models. See below for what the annual dues stipend brings you.
