Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
Just a heads up, Saturday February 1st were having the annual university at the our bodyshop. We're planning on a small swapmeet from 9 am till noon, lunch from noon until 1, donations accepted. After that a seminar on rebuilding and setting generators and a seminar on tightening up front end parts and alignment, I'm sure a couple other topics will come up. So if you're overwhelmed with cabin fever hop in the car (or T,, Gregg and Paul,,) and stop in. Should be a good day. Oh by the way the address is 1405 n Main West Bend Wi 53095,

Re: Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
I will be there again with some of my "Model T junk" to "Show and Tell". Also, some of my extra Ford Z tools will be for sale.
We got back Sunday evening from The Winter Model T Clinic at McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas. It was 1500 miles round trip, but it was well worth it for the great presentations and fellowship with all of the other Model T guys. I was really impressed with the restoration projects that the students were working on.
Two fun Model T weekends in the winter!!!!!!

Re: Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
Hi Jim Sr., I saw you and Jim Jr. pictured at the Winter Model T Clinic at McPherson - sitting right in the front row. Yes, 1500 miles for a one day event is a long way! Did you pick up any good tips from the likes of Mike Stormo and Tom Carnegie? It probably wouldn't hurt any of us to listen to those two for awhile.
Cheers,
Keith

Re: Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
Looks like good weather to hang out in a bodyshop tomorrow. I still have some cleaning up to do yet. If you can make it bring any available oil pans along, Jim Rodell Sr is bringing his K R Wilson pan jig so people can check pans. Itll be a good day to talk Ts.

Re: Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
I’m bringing one or two tables of small used parts. If anyone needs any new parts, contact me before about 5pm today and I’ll bring them along for you. I stock just about everything. Use email.

Re: Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University
Billy,
Thank you for hosting this event for the Dairyland Tin Lizzies. It was a fun day. I think we had between 40 and 50 people in attendance, with many visitors from the Milwaukee chapter of MTFCI and a good number of Illinois Model T guys. The demonstrations by Gregg Z., Dave D., and Jim H. were all very informative. Adam's parts for sale and my dad's KRW pan jig and literature collection were nice additions to the event.
This is a great winter get-together for our chapter, and it is encouraging to see the growing enthusiasm for the Model T Ford hobby in southeast Wisconsin.
