Welcome to XYZ Car . Club
XYZ Car (dot) Club exists to celebrate the machines we drive, the two-lane blacktop we travel, and the stories that connect us through automotive culture. Our mission is to preserve knowledge, share experience, and pass on tradition. Not to impress, but to connect.
XYZ was born in parking lots, garages, early-morning meet-ups, and late-night convoys.
Through builds, meets, mentorship, and miles, we carry the automotive traditions forward. We’re fueled by the time spent under the hood, the miles shared in a convoy, and the pride of keeping something mechanical and meaningful alive.
About X Y Z
We represent Generations X, Y, Z, before, and beyond, who are called to steward these great street machines.
XYZ celebrates car culture in its rawest, most rewarding form.
As a loosely affiliated group of friends and automotive enthusiasts, we aren’t defined by era or drivetrain. We are a gathering place for those who see their vehicle not as a trophy, but as a witness to their lives. These are machines with soul, with scars, and with deep history and meaning to the people they touch.
The XYZ Three.
Our Mission
To connect the next generation of car lovers through events, wrenching, storytelling, and community by honoring the spirit of automotive culture without elitism or judgement.
This is a place for wrench-turners, sunset cruisers, garage philosophers, and anyone who knows the smell of fuel as a kind of poetry. We’re here for the work, the laughs, the breakdowns, the breakthroughs, and the bond that forms when people build and drive with soul.

X Y Z Member Garage
Roy Tibbs1963 Corvette Stingray

A family heirloom street-built Stingray running on pure attitude. This drive is about legacy, restoration tradition, and the joy of surprise pulls.
69 Stingray1969 Corvette Stingray

This immaculate ‘69 Stingray is an absolute looker. Meticulously maintained and cared for by Sir 69 himself.
81 Z281981 Camaro Z28

Sir 81 Z28’s ride has a personality to match. Loud and full of character from the ground up.
Roy Tibbs2008 BMW E92 M3

Tibbs’s Courtesy M3 blends German precision with grassroots grit. A naturally aspirated purist when it comes to powerbands and torque curves, Tibbs lives for backroad runs and big throttle exits.
