This website is dedicated to our veterans, who through their sacrifice and service have kept the United States "the land of the free and the home of the brave".  Because of their sacrifice and service we are free to pursue our hobby of preserving the vehicles and equipment used by us, our allies, and our opponents.

The Arkansas Chapter of the MVPA was established in 1992 in Hardy, Arkansas.  It fluctuated in numbers and strength during the next eight years.  In January of 2000 there was a membership of 19.  With a drive for new members, in 2002 the membership grew to over 100.  As of December 31, 2004 our membership has grown to 131.  The club membership covers a substantial portion of the state of Arkansas as well as numerous other states.  Vehicle ownership has grown from approximately 40 to 325 recorded vehicles as of December 31, 2004.  Our vehicles are in various stages of restoration ranging from "as found" to national convention show winners.  Our mission is to:  Preserve and restore military vehicles for current and future generations; To exhibit our vehicles in a patriotic manner; To honor the veterans who have served to maintain and protect our freedom; To instill in young people a respect for America's military history; and to provide enjoyment for family and friends.
