Join the LCOC
Founded in 1953, the LCOC is now an international organization of 5,000
members. The Club is dedicated to restoring, preserving and enjoying the
legendary and famous Lincolns and Continentals. We recognize Lincolns and
Continentals of all years, but they must be at least 10 years old to be
eligible to compete for trophies at the National Meet
Concours. Lincolns and Continentals provide a common interest, but ownership
is not a requirement for membership in the Lincoln and Continental Owners
Club.
The LCOC is an international organization which acts as the umbrella entity
for 21 local regions of the club. There are activities
at both the national and regional level, varying from region to region.
By locating LCOC members in your home city or state, they can provide you
with additional information about the activities of the LCOC Region in your
locale.
The NEW National dues are $42/yr and dues for membership in a region vary,
but are $20 to $40/yr. In order to defray the additional postage expense,
membership for residents of countries other than the U. S., Canada, and
Mexico, is $54.00 per year/US funds. One may join the LCOC without belonging
to a region, but not vice-versa. You may join the LCOC by sending the membership
fee, and the following information to the address listed below. Please include:
full name, address, and telephone numbers, and the year, model and VIN of
your Lincoln(s). Members outside the USA should send payment by international
money order.
- Generally, within 3 weeks after the Membership Office receives your
application, you will receive your LCOC membership card. Membership cards
to new members are mailed at the middle and at the end of each month.
- "Continental Comments" is mailed about the first of February, April,
June, August, October, December. New members begin receiving the Clubs
award winning publication "Continental Comments" approx. a month and half
after joining. "Continental Comments" is published 6 times per year and
includes many interesting articles covering the entire spectrum of Lincolns
and Continentals from 1921 to the present. These articles deal not only
with the cars, but their owners, past and present, and include historical
background about why Lincoln produced the cars that it did. "Continental
Comments" provides advanced notice of the three national LCOC meets every
year. "Continental Comments" has a classified section available for members
to advertise cars, parts and services. Many parts and restoration dealers
advertise in this section.
- The LCOC Membership Directory contains the names and addresses of all
members, and the Lincolns and Continentals they own. The names of the
Members are also sorted by state. The Lincolns and Continentals are sorted
by year for easy reference to other owners with similar cars. The Club
By-laws and Judging Standards are also included in the Directory for reference.
The names and addresses of the Technical Advisors are listed along with
their specialties. Membership Directories are mailed in April. The information
is current as of March 1st each year. In July, a supplemental mailing
is sent to new members who have joined the LCOC during the April - June
period. Copies for other new members and extra copies are available for
$5.00 each from LCOC National Project Sales, c/o Charlie Blais, PO Box 5632, Manchester, NH 03108.
- Other benefits of membership:
- Join your local region, which has many events in your local area
during the year. The regions are listed on the web site.
- Register and attend National Meets, which are typically 4-5 days
and include local sightseeing and culminate in a concourse on Saturday
followed by an award banquet.
- As a member, you can enter your Lincoln in concourse judging, if
it is at least 10 years old. There are two different types of classes
that new members can enter their car depending upon the member's preference.
Notes:
"Continental Comments" and Directories are mailed Second Class postage
and US delivery takes 10 days to 2 weeks. Delivery of periodicals is much
more reliable when they are mailed with First Class postage. First Class
postage is available for "Continental Comments" @ $12.00 per year.
It is the responsibility of each member to notify the membership office
of any change of address, telephone, or identification or cars.
