To celebrate the day thousands of Model A Ford restorers and preservers will be taking their cars out for a drive, and to socialize with other Model A enthusiasts. The specific activities will be determined by each local group, found in all 50 states and about 30 other countries. Some groups will be driving to picnics; others will participate in car shows and contests to help celebrate. Many groups are expected to coordinate their activities with local Ford dealers, some of which will help support the day's activities.
