MTFCA Forum

The Gallery Section of the Model T Forum has a wealth of technical drawings in the VowellArt folder that are worth checking out. Here is an exploded view of the Model T Sidelight with more information on the various components of the early and late Sidelight Assembly, including part numbers. Rick Ressijac discovered that the sidelights on his 1923...

History: On March 18, 1921, the Mount Bethel Volunteer Fire Company of Warren Township, Somerset County, New Jersey paid $598 for a TT Ford Truck. The volunteers made a body for the truck from donated wood. The iron fittings and rails were made and bought from a local blacksmith. The truck was painted and lettered for an additional $50.

Volume 19 Number 2 and 6
Volume 23 Number 6
Volume 37 Number 6

Any help would be much appreciated...

Shop Mule Tractors like this 1940s model were used in factories, industrial facilities, and railways to haul heavy cargo in confined spaces. Ford Motor Co. used and sold Model T-based Mules. Anyone ever come across a surviving one? I'm working on a story about them and would love a photo of an existing or even a...

Is there any way to search the VF Magazine? Ia am particularly interested is what cars have been featured. Even a list would be very useful.

Thanks, John

Would love to have some of your best digital photos of Mr. Jay Klehfoth to include in the Vintage Ford . Please email them to me at VFeditorMTFCA@yahoo.com. Thanks so much for your help! :!:

I seem to remember this topic was discussed in the past. I have the first issue of CDs and last year sold off all
of my set of printed magazines from 1981 to 2018. Any plans to do a new set of CDs? Any plans to have Vintage Ford
available on line? pdf down load? Bruce did a fantastic job last time and at least this time there are digital files...

On page 11, the top photo incorrectly dates the cars as coming from a 1919 catalog. That is impossible, as two of those models were discontinued by that time! Those are all early 1917 models.

Thanks to Original Smith for catching this typo. The 1917 Ford Sales catalog was published in 1916 and featured Ford's lineup for 1917. Rich Eagle's...

I just got my copy of the September/October 2020 Vintage Ford, what a great issue!

Best of luck to Susan on her second retirement , and congratulations to Noah on his latest promotion! :)

Did you know you can get cover flats (the heavyweight printed cover without the fold or staples) of most Vintage Ford issues?

You can put the cover flats up in your garage or have them framed. Cost for a cover flat (including shipping) is $10. To order your favorite cover flat(s) with a credit card, call the MTFCA office at 765-373-3106. Or mail...

Yes I am.
Thanks
Rich

It looks like the step can swing to face the opposite side for left or right mount. It seems I can only post 5 pics per topic so... post3...

In the current issue of the Vintage Ford we kicked off a new column called, What is it? Do you recognize either of these two tools? They are part of the equipment in the Model T Museum's Vintage Garage.

Do you own a Model T mystery tool or accessory? Email me a few photos; we might feature it in an upcoming column.

I enjoyed Steve Jelf's story of his journey to the OCF at Greenfield Village. It inspired me to do something similar....some day. First I need to get my T back together and work the bugs out of it.
