In regards to diminishing numbers in the club, couldn't give you one solid answer. As a younger guy, this is my take, and not a one-size fits all answer to the issue obviously. I know for my friends, they see the hobby of old cars in general as a luxury that many can't afford. I have had a few walk into my garage and are shocked that I have an old car in the garage, whether it runs or not. They want to get into old cars but can't afford the hobby. Many families live check to check these days. Dropping the investment on an old car seems out of reach. Another obstacle for many is the declining space to store an old car. Many houses are converting garage space into living space leaving no room to comfortably work on a car. And honestly, I could see some not seeing the value in joining the club either. Benefits listed on the Club page aren't a huge draw. That's just me though.
