What events are planned for Model T's in 2013 ?
Is there an event or swap meet calendar available for members to look at? What is going on in the Model T world? I hope to attend the Leaf Peepers tour in the fall at Estes Park. What is the best swap meet to attend? Any Model T gatherings that are good to go to?
If your a member of MTFCA and get the Vintage Ford,it has a calendar of events listed in it. Local events are listed with a local club.

Both lists are partial, probably because organizers neglect to promote their evens to the websites.
The big events closest to you will be the Chickasha prewar swap meet in March and the MTFCI Kanab tour in July.
I should have included the Model T Clinic next month: http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/257047/330197.html?1356477661.
There's the Annual swap meet in Turlock, CA on January 26/27, 2013 at the Stanislaus County Fair grounds. Not exclusively T, but usually at least some T stuff.
How about the North East? Any swap meets here?

I bought a Hemming's Calendar and it has a lot of the old car events across the U.S.
On the Hemmings website you can search events by date, location, etc.: http://www.hemmings.com/calendar/>
Chickasha is the best swap meet for Model Ters bar none. The Chickasha meet is in the Spring about March.
I think the best swap meet in Colorado is the Loveland Swap meet around September 20th. I come home with loads of T stuff every Loveland Swap Meet. I come home from some of the bigger swap meets in Colorado with virtually nothing.
This year I'll be touring at the Canyonlands tour again in Kanab with the MTFCI, Driving in Montana 500 and going to the MTFCA National Tour in AK.
Would also like to tour with Tony Browker in Death Valley but don't think I can make that one.
Coming this Sunday is a favorite, the Holiday Motor Excursion in Pasadena!
MTFCA National Tour in South Australia's beautiful Barossa Valley. Check out the details on www.modeltfordclubaustralia.org.au See you in September?
