Searching the forum for pre-2019 threads
Is there a way to access pre-2019 threads in this new format? If so, I have not been able to figure it out. Luckily, I saved the old forum format with the old keyword search function and thus, have access to threads going back to 2005. Members who did not do that, or newbies who are not familiar with the old forum are missing out on a wealth of information from many old members who were experts on every aspect of Model T’s, but are no longer with us and are unable to benefit us with their knowledge.

Re: Searching the forum for pre-2019 threads
Google is your friend.
When I want to search the pre-2019 threads.
Type what you're looking for then attach MTFCA
This will bring up every old thread (and new) that is on the MTFCA forum.
searching on the forum is not very friendly.

Click on the banner at the top of this page, "Model T Ford Club Of America". Click "Forums" and you will have the option to go to the older forums.

Re: Searching the forum for pre-2019 threads
I go to the Board Index and pick 2018 & prior Forums. Then I use the Keyword search. I found several threads I was looking for just an hour ago. Some early threads do not come up. If it is a popular word there will be many threads to wade through. Google works well on some but not all topics.

Thank you all for your help. I now have more than one search option for accessing older, pre 2019 threads. Jim Patrick
