Thank you for your interest in the Microcar & Minicar Club!
The Microcar & Minicar Club Inc. is a not-for-profit social club dedicated to the enjoyment and preservation of small and
unusual cars, both foreign and domestic. It is not necessary to own such a car to join.
We define a "small" car as one
less than 11 feet long and/or having an engine with less than 1000cc engine displacement. How do we define "unusal"? We'll
leave that one up to you, but to give you an idea of what we consider unusual from some of the typical makes of cars found
in our club include the BMW Isetta, Citroen 2CV, Crosley, Daf, Goggomobile, King Midget, Messerschmitt, NSU Prinz, Subaru
360, Vespa 400, and many, many more. The primary focus of the club is on post-WWII "bubblecars" so called because of their
semi spherical shape. Cars like the Heinkel, Messerschmitt and Isetta will give you an idea of what a bubblecar is.
The
club's ancestry can be traced back to the H-M-I Club of the 70's, but the present organization dates from the Fall of 1991.
Since then, The Microcar & Minicar Club has steadily grown in size with members all around the globe.
The club publishes
a quarterly magazine called MINUTIA (pronounced "min-NEW-sha" - defined by Webster's as "a minute, precise, or minor detail")
which is the thread joining all our members together. MINUTIA features current small car news, details on member-oriented
events, technical information, reprints of period literature, road tests, restoration & maintenance tips, small car trivia,
photos of members' cars, sources for parts & service and a classified section which reaches the largest single group of small
car enthusiasts in the WORLD!
