Model A Bus Project
January 31 - The Model A Ford Foundation Inc (MAFFI) is restoring a Model A Bus. This is not a school bus but a very rare passenger bus. Several volunteers from several Model A clubs are participating in the build.
As a fund raiser, they're selling T-shirts and sweat shirts. If you would like to help fund this project, click on the image on the right to read more.

Members with Email
January 31 - One feature of this website, which was present at the very beginning in 1997 was the page "Members with Email," which allows members to voluntarily list their names, location, Model As, and special interests. And a little mailbox icon which will allow other members to send them email.
If you look at some of the member information on that page, you'll notice that some of the entries haven't been updated in over 20 years. Since people move and change email addresses over time, many of those entries are no long accurate. We have removed any entry dated before 2010.
If your information has been removed and you wish to be reinstated, simply click on the link on that page to add your name back and provide your current information.
Changes Ahead
Starting January 15, any new website ads, calendar updates, and chapter updates that reach the webmaster by Thursday will be updated on Friday.
We're implementing these changes because our webmaster has announced his retirement at the end of 2022 and this new schedule will cut down on the many hours it takes each month to maintain the website. Therefore it will be easier to find a new webmaster.
We will still accept your photos for the A OF THE DAY - your photos will be acknowledged on the Friday after you submit them. We know that many of you enjoy doing the puzzles with these photos, so this feature will continue for your entertainment.
