History Mysterious car club in California with all golden cars

Long shot, but legend says my father in law purchased his 1929 Roadster from car club in either Northern California or Oregon where all the members painted their cars gold. What car club does that? This is like 1960.

Father in law has passed and he was also known for adding flourishes to his stories so this may not be true at all.

So, golden cars in car club in northern Cali or Oregon, circa 1960. If anyone has any clues let me know.

 

turned into the "Gold Chainers" later

 

I did a quick google search including "gold car club members" and all I got was this

 

does Dave Gray know?
