I only joined the MTFCA 15 years ago this month in June 1999. My assigned membership number is 22,295. I was wondering what the member I D number is up to now. I know there are not app. 30,000 members active. The oldest member number in our club, the Model T Ford Club of Kern County belongs to Blackie, it is #3596. He has been a member over 40 years.
Thanks Mark
Mark,
I joined last June, membership number 30942
I joined in 1966 MTFCA member #2,088, and proud of it danuser88@ktis.net, We formed the Kingdom Of Callaway MTFCA chapter in 1976, and hosted 3 Natl meets w/ 6 members and lots of friends
That's great John. I didn't realize there were so many members the first year of the Club in 1966. I would love to hear your memories of the early days of the MTFCA.

I joined I think it was March 2013..the card's in the other room...my number is 30701. Really enjoy the club!
So they don't reuse old numbers. But if someone leaves the club for a few years and rejoins, can he get his old # back?
I never got a MTFCA membership card. I joined in the 70's.
I first started getting the MTFCA magazine in early 73. My number was #5963. The clubs address was in Oceanside California.
I quit taking the magazine and started up again 4-5 years ago. A higher different number now.
I cant remember if I got a card or not. The membership number is on the magazine envelope. I still have my magazines in the original envelopes and all have the same ID no. next to my name.
I'm thinking that would be the membership no.
I finally joined last month. My number is 31340.
Mine is 18316
Don't think they distribute membership cards anymore. I know I haven't received one.
2859 is my # but Papa ( now gone) must have been in double digits.
My member number in the Model T Ford Club of America is 823. My member number in the Model T Ford Club International is 953.
I joined this club in the first year. The international was a year or so old when I joined. There are not many in either club with lower numbers.
My number is 8127 and I'm not sure what year that number reflects, but I've been a member for a lot of years. I had a lower number the first time I joined, but then I was away from the club for a while and when I re-joined, I got my current number.
Mark - I have been a member of the Kern County Model T Club sine 1967. I was a member before Blackie. My member number is 1695. I moved from Bakersfield in 1986 but have maintained my membership since that is where I got my first 3 T's. I get back down there in April each year for the swap meet and visit with the members from back then. Is there going to be a 50th celebration for the club this year?
MTFCA is 22905 and MTFCI is 23068 with HCCA 2352.
John, Sorry. I thought your member number in the Club Roster was a Life Membership number. Yes there is going to be a Model T Ford Club of Kern County 50th Club Anniversary in September. Roy Romagno is heading it up. I don't have any more info yet.

It looks like the Member Numbers are up to about 31350. Not bad since December 1965. I wonder whom has the oldest and lowest number still.
I could have been #223!! My dad was #222 and at the time Ray Miller and Bruce McCalley had been coming to Bakersfield lobbying for the Kern County club to affiliate with the MTFCA. After my dad joined I was going to join as well but Ray Miller said no that I would be considered a family member under my dads' membership. That was in 1966 and I was 17 at the time. I have had my own model T since I was 13 but didn't join the national club until the 70's.
Hi Harry, Good to see your still in the hobby. - John
Interesting that Kern County Blackie is #3596...I am #3583 and joined in 1970, Santa Clara Valley MTFC.
Hi John--It's been a long time... 25+ years!!! Maybe I'll see you at the swapmeet one of these years
