The Pharoahs Car Club was founded in 1948 , in Modesto, California, primarily by WWII and Korean war veterans.
The younger school kids in Modesto, being too young to join the Pharoahs, formed the Fraternity called the Faros in 1957. The Faros was the group that George Lucas wrote about in the movie American Grafitti. They were his classmates. Due to copyright issues, the movie used a different spelling
Today's Pharoahs Car Club is a world wide club with chapters across the United States, and internationally in Japan, Australia, Finland, United Kingdom, Norway, Canada and Mexico.
2023 marked the 75th Anniversary of the Pharoahs Car Club.
PHAROAHS OF COLORADO
The Colorado chapter of the Pharoahs Car Club was formed in 2020. It grew quickly, and due to the distances involved, a second chapter, the Pharoahs Car Club of Northern Colorado was formed in 2022. In 2023 we formed the Pharoahs Car Club of Southern Colorado, serving the Southeast/Alamosa area of Colorado. In 2024 we opened our South Central Colorado chapter for the Colorado Springs Area, and the Western Nebraska Chapter based in the Scottsbluff, Nebraska area. We also welcomed the Pharoahs Car Club of Kansas chapter into our Regional area. As we continue to grow, we will be forming more chapters to serve more areas.
Although each chapter has their own officers, meetings, and events, all our chapters support and attend the other's events whenever possible.
