Who we are

The Thunder Rods is the car club Audrey's Fitting's dad, Merwin Appell, brothers Fred and Mike Appell, and her late husband Richard started in the 1950's.

We are a family oriented club that participates in shows, cruises, charity events, and more! New members always welcome! Are you stuck in the fifties and sixites like we are? The music and the dress, days of going to sock hops, drive-in movies,  and cruising in your classic car to Guida's on Friday nights. Do you like having fun at shows, picnics, and other events? Do you like to laugh and have fun with a group of people that all get along? Then you would like our club! We are also a nostalgia club. Many of us are also old Drag Racers. We do have periodic meetings, pot luck dinners as well as Cruise Nights and other events. They say "You can't go back". Well, we never left!
