I believe they use the F.A.S.T. rules, but I am not sure where you find them.

Charlie Yapp probably has them on a website somewhere or maybe someone will chime in.

They have different classes and your car will be put in one of those classes.

Re: What Has Your Chapter Done in 2025?

Today we had 20 members attend a play 'Drinking Habits' , at the local theatre about 2 nuns making wine at the convent and Mother Superior was unaware of it. A local reporter dressed up as a priest, then a nun, then the bishop to get the story. Then we all went to a local restaurant for and early di...

Re: Grease leak at u-joint

I wonder how many people have found much grease inside after they have separated the torque tube from the engine? Yes, the universal joint is greasy and the walls are greasy, but most of the rest of the space is just air. Ford only installed a grease cup there, not a zerk fitting. Even if you pump i...

Re: SPEEDSTER TRIALS & REUNION Lincoln, Ne

The museum is also open for a lot of that time even though it is closed to the public. You could easily spend an entire day there.
Collections that are attractive to men, women, and children.

Re: What did you do with your T February 2025

Picked up my rebuilt engine from Adam Doleshal. Now wait for some warm weather to install it. Picked up a Model T that a gentleman gave to our club and delivered it to a members garage. It is a 24? Coupe and looks like it is all there. He was in the process of restoration, but he is being transferre...

Re: Hazel the Model T goes to the 2024 Old Car Festival

So great to see someone else take a chance on a trip to OCF. Best car show ever. Next time you can bring a tent and pretend it is 1930. It is so much fun to really go on a journey to see what it was like in the day. Hope you can do it again. I also lost my muffler and Dallas Landers came to my rescu...

Unfortunately for me it has slowed down again. Jay is correct. Takes almost 60 seconds to load a page.

I know Jeff and Chris are working hard to fix this. Just letting them know of the issue here.

I just purchased some non-demountable rims from Langs. Wonder if I need to drill the valve hole or if Stutzman will do that? Can I have these rims powder coated before I send them to Ohio?

Digital Memberships on the horizon maybe?
