I would like to acknowledge everyone who had made a donation to MAYRA – Model A Youth Restoration Award – at our last meeting. Our club members were very generous and the MAYRA scholarship must be successful so our hobby can stay strong for years to come. These young people are our future Model A club members. Thank you to all involved. The fire truck is coming along. Most of the sheet-metal is mounted and is starting to look like…
Touring season is here. Garage clinics are coming. Nice weather is just around the corner. It is time to drive our Model A’s. Come on out and join a tour. First for the fun, second to exercise your car, and third to support our tour leaders. The tour leaders work hard to put the tours together. I would like to thank everyone who is planning a tour for the club this year. The tours are a great part of what…
April showers bring May flowers but it also washes the salt off the road. With the salt gone, we can start our touring season. It’s time to get the Model A out and start driving with theclub, go out for a ride by yourself, or run a tour. This is why we have our cars! The fire truck is moving along. The frame is ready. The parts are ready for paint and everything is getting close to becoming a bright…
Cold weather, who needs it? Actually it is a good excuse to get into the garage and work on your Model A or think about running a tour. So get out there and do what needs to be done. The fire truck restoration is in full swing. The truck is disassembled, sandblasted and ready for paint. A big thank you to all that helped out with this project so far. There is more to come so be ready to lend a…
Once again, Happy New Year to everyone. I would like to thank everyone for allowing me to be the President of our great club for another year. Thank you. There are some great things planned for this year. The tours are starting to be planned. The fire truck has been taken apart for painting. This is a big project for the club to undertake. Please lend a hand on reassembly when the parts start coming back from the youth of…
Wishing everyone a very happy and healthy Holiday Season and for the upcoming year too. With the new year approaching, it is time to remember all the good times we have had together. Some members are with us and some are with us in spirit, but I am very grateful for everyone. We all should treasure the time that we have together. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed this year for making our club a great one.…
The end of the touring season is upon us. But there is still time to drive your Model A. As the holidays approach us soon, try to remember how lucky you are and remember there are many people in need. “Stuff the Bus” is our annual club food drive so join us for a nice day out and make a difference for those in need. Our club’s tricky tray is going to be here before you know it. Gather up…
November2024 What a great time of the year. Crisp mornings and great touring weather are here, not to mention the Hershey fall meet also. It is great to see we have members that are vendors at the flea market. I ran into about 13 members of our club while at the Hershey fall meet in the flea market fields, well, not in the fields, but on the pavement. Do you remember all the mud? If you have never been to…
October 2024 Hello All! We are coming up on the best time of year. Soon the weather will be cooler and that means time to tour in our cars. I would like to say thank you to Dick Smith for hosting the Gymkhana. This year was my first one and I had a blast. If you missed it, plan to be there next year. You won’t be disappointed. There are a lot of fun upcoming events in our club remaining…
July 2024 The members of the club are ready for the sum-mer touring season, so let’s get out there and drive our cars. Let’s all get involved and come out and see just how much fun you can have on our tours. We are trying something different for a change. Come out on a Wednesday night, for the “Blue Arrow Tour”, to check out some dif-ferent makes and models of cars on display. If you haven’t been there, give it…
June 2024 Touring season is here. All our cars should be ready to drive and display for others to see. Speaking of displaying, if you missed the visit to Morris County Vo-Tech for our “May Model A Youth Month” activ-ity, you missed a good time. We displayed our cars for the students and they were very interested in all different areas of the cars. It was great to see that there is still an interest in older cars. So, if…
Well, here we are in the worst part of winter. Don’t let the cold temperatures and dreary weather keep you on the couch, be-cause the touring season is not too far away. I am sure there is something you can do on your Model A. For instance, I am working on getting some distributors and water pumps rebuilt. This is something you can do wherever it is warm. If you are not sure how to rebuild or have any questions…
To all of our members and families, I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2023 ended in a very special way with our annual holiday party. It was very nice to see everyone that came out to bring in the holiday season and the swearing in of the new officers. Thank you, Richard Smith, for all that you did for the club last year. 2024 started out with an idea to send an e-mail to…
