Club of historic
vehicles Považiewas founded 29.3.2007 by registration on Department
of Home Affairs of Slovak republic. This club associates fans of automobile
industry from Považská Bystrica and surroundings, which are interested in
historic vehicles and motorcycles. The intention of our club is to preserve
original state of historic vehicles, renovate older vehicles and to keep
traditions in development of automobile industry in Považie. Big part of our
work is putting on work with young people and children, therefore we came up with
a special section of young people. Throug this activity we should educate and
prepare young motorists.
Today´s car industry
is producing lot of new types of cars every day in huge series and hardly anybody is remembering
the last time, when car on the road was rarity. In that time people drove their
cars very slowly but driver was absolutely busy with machinist. There were no
boost and brake controls, no air-conditioning and ABS gear
shifting ofunsynchronous transmissions
needed more knowledge a experiences. And the driver had to take care of
important components during his driving.
This things are history
for today´s people.
And yet when we see veteran car on the road, our nostalgic memories of a beyond
age are back.
And
this is our goal. To be pleased with watching valuable
cars
of past time.
