The Early Iron Club

Back in 1981 a small club calling themselves the “Car Crazies” decided to have an event for car enthusiasts to show off their vintage automobiles. The show was called “San Luis Valley Early Iron Festival” and that first year they had 36 entries. This festival changed everything for this club as well as the surrounding community. We now host over 600 car show entries from all over the country!

The club changed their name to the San Luis Valley Early Iron Club and has grown from 6 original members to now over 20 members. Our passion is to still bring the essence of hot rodding to as many people as possible. To show that all of this vintage tin is worth saving and can always be cool.
