Greetings fellow old-car enthusiast!
My name is Jeff Koch, and I’m a writer for Hemmings Classic Car magazine. I’m hoping that you can help us with a project we’re doing.
If you’ve read the magazine, you’ll know we do a monthly page called Next Generation—it’s about the under-25 crowd and their commitment to driving/fixing/enjoying old cars and the hobby.
We are currently searching for a group of Under 25s who own and/or repair their own car (preferably 1960s-era or earlier) to a stock, or semi-stock, format. (No hot rods please!) The cars do not have to be in like-new condition, they can be “drivable dream” quality. Putting your grandchild in front of your car and claiming it’s his or hers isn’t going to work.
This letter is an open invitation to any licensed driver under the age of 25 in your club who fits this criteria to contact me directly about who they are, what they drive and why. To get started, we really only need a little bit of information: name, age, hometown, what the car is, and a few words on how they got into old cars and why they like to own and drive them. (one-line emails like “I have a nice old Ford please putme in the mag thx” will not be considered.) Photos of car and owner are a bonus also. As for the rest, we will take it from there.
Anyone who fits the above criteria is welcome to contact me directly at jkoch@hemmings.com.
I look forward to meeting the next generation of classic car enthusiasts!
Sincerely,
Jeff Koch
