On average, what day of the month do you receive your Vintage Ford magazine?

thanks in advance.

It depends:
(1) on the mailing date, some VF editions are ready sooner/later in the 2-month publication cycle.
(2) on competition with other mail, holiday crush may take longer to arrive, depending on when it is mailed.
(3) your zip code, there's considerable delivery time differences across the country, A member living near you could sort that out for you. Here in 13053 land I usually see it around the middle of the 2nd month (Feb, Apr, Ju, etc). IIRC, the electronic version is made available at the time of printing for international members and may be accessible here as well. Hope this helps, jb

Only once, in my entire membership since 2009, have I ever received the magazine in the first month it covers, and that was the January 2022 edition.

"I might leave it in the wrapper."
Sorta like some cars sit in a museum.
Nice photo on the front cover.
Got my Vintage Ford today in the mail.

I got my March/April 2022 issue today, thanks MTFCA!

Thanks guys.

Mine arrived last week and I’ve already read all the print off!

On the day that ends in Y! What oil are you guys running in your T? How much?

Mark posted that he got his yesterday in Hillsboro MO. I also got mine yesterday in Ballwin MO.

I received my copy yesterday and immediately recognized the location on the cover. I was driving through Brownville Nebraska last summer when I spotted the Ford sign on the building. The museum was not open at the time but I stopped for photos. The museum is actually much larger than the Ford Garage portion.

Jab35 is right on target with trying to get our Vintage Ford magazine out to our members.
We try very hard to remain on schedule in putting the magazine together, proof it, get releases, etc…. Our Editor, Aleesa and Exec Director, Rachel, have consistently insured we continue to create a winning, informative and fun magazine. But the Editor can only do that through the articles and photos you provide.
Please submit your T story - you may not think it’s interesting, but you may just be surprised.
And lastly, like so many others, we remain in a line at the publisher and postal system to get the Vintage Ford to you.
Thank you all for you continued membership and support to one awesome hobby!

I have no problems with the magazine or the delivery. It am just glad it is delivered. I don't keep track of when it arrives.
I appreciate the effort that is required to publish it.

I got my Vintage Ford today.

The wrapper failed yesterday evening. So, I had to look at every page last night.

I have never kept track. Its always a nice suprise when it comes, and it always does.

I don't know if there is any pattern to it but mine came today.
Yippeeee!

My Model T Times came last week, maybe 7-8 days ago.

If my Vintage Ford comes a month later I will be sad.

This is almost once in a lifetime, but both T magazines came today!!!! Almost better than Christmas..... but not quite...

I received mine today. This being a small town in the mountains east of San Diego, the mail is delivered first to San Diego and then sorted to each of the outlying post offices and finally delivered by rural route carrier, so it does take a bit longer to get here.
Good pictures and very informative articles.

Received mine only yesterday. Rural carrier’s horse is at the vets...

Arrived 3/23 in upstate NY. jb

About 2 months after you guys. It’s always screwed up and looks like its bad bath and gone half way round the world!
Alan in Western Australia

Received mine Wednesday, March 24, here in Northern California.

For the record, mine came yesterday. Havnt had time to read it yet.

Some day last week. I don't keep a record of when they arrive

The March / April issue arrived today in Southern New Jersey.

April 4 and nothing yet. Do you think it is time to call and ask for another copy?

April 15th and still waiting. Wonder if it blew away in yesterdays wind storm.

I sent an e-mail to Rachel Hughes last week and have had no response.
